There is already an abundance of free and open source software, so much that it would take a lifetime even to catalog it. (One of the most inexplicable things to me is how people prefer to pay for proprietary software rather than learn to use free FOSSoftware. "Bigfoot lives on Endor.")

We made the software already, is my point. We have the technology. It's just a matter of getting the word out, and logistics. The computers can solve the logistics. (This is Bucky Fuller's idea: the World Game https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Game )

We're not subjected to artificial scarcity now except by choice.
