You are arguing semantics like an autistic sperg. Nobody defines "post scarcity" as "an infinite supply". It just means everyone can easily obtain it cheaply.

I challenge you to find an economist who speaks of "post scarcity" as if he means what you mean.

I challenge you to find a person who is desperate for aluminum. Even a machinist is going to tell you he has absolutely no problem finding all the aluminum he can feed through his machines at a very reasonable price.

Scarcity is the limited availability of a commodity, which may be in demand in the market.

Nigger. if it's no infinite, it's limited.

No good economist would speak of post scarcity in the first place. Only idiots can serve as authoritative example for your idiotic idea.

Now fuck off

Nobody is arguing with you on that. All you are doing here is arguing semantics like an autistic sperg. OK, I get that you don't like the name "post-scarcity". You think it should be called something else.

OK. You are right on that one. It should be called "Nearly-Everything-Is-So-Plentiful-That-Nearly-Everyone-Can-Obtain-Nearly-Anything-They-Want-Trivially Economy".

But, that's a mouthful. So, let's just call it a "post-scarcity" economy like EVERYONE ELSE does.

No good economist would speak of post scarcity in the first place.

The robots are coming for your job dude. And when that happens, the shit I want just gets cheaper, and cheaper, and cheaper. I mean, it sucks for you. But, you've obviously proven you aren't worthy of being an Übermensch. So, we don't really need you anyway.
