Answer to Question 1

People living in poverty have access to few resources, which limits the goods and services that can be consumed. When an individual faces scarcity it means not having enough resources to consume all that is desired (necessitating that choices be made). While not everyone lives in poverty, everyone does face scarcity. Even the rich face scarcity (since as wealth increases, so do human wants).
