Comrade Cowbee already followed with great responses but I want to add that we usually forget to factor in why would someone want more?
That’s easy to answer currently because we live in a capitalistic world where individualism and greed are taught to us since we are little and are constantly hammered into our heads. We must consume, we must have more, etc.
That will not be the case in a communist society. At that stage of development, these capitalistic ideals would not be alive in the collective consciousness of people. So, while today we can ask why wouldn’t someone want more, someone from that future might ask why would I want more if I already have everything I need?
