Re: /m2 would scarcity ever disappear?

In the near future, property will be scarce (there's only so much inhabitable area). And a friend mentioned another scarcity that will be harder to get around: attention (i.e. fame). It is not obvious to me that there will come a time when nothing is scarce, even in a post-singularity society. It is interesting to think about though!
