Card 3 / 100: Why does economic scarcity lead to potential conflict in society?
Answer:
Scarcity means that there aren't enough units of a good (or service) to satisfy everyone's potential uses for it. In society, people often have incompatible aims for the same unit of a good. (If Jim eats a piece of pizza, Sally can't eat the same piece.)
