People need very little. Food, water, shelter. Most of these things are already being made, and in quantity. If you restrict yourself to that which is truly necessary, you do very little indeed.

Well the hidden meaning behind my comment was that instead of producing more things for us to consume in the 1st world, maybe we should focus our attention on helping the other worlds out there.

I know, I know, I'm a dreamer.

Unless you make... posters :)

Joke aside, I like "need" better. People don't know what they want, just give them what they need.

This.
