TULISAN
Human needs are not limited
In living life, humans are exposed to a variety of economic issues. The
problems arising from the human desire to survive. Survival can be maintained
if their needs are met. In addition, the desire to live worthy cause diverse
human needs and always increasing. As a result, human life needs to be
unlimited.
1.1. Understanding Needs
Scarcity relates to the need. Necessity is everything needed humans in order to
maintain viability in order to attain prosperous living standard. In principle,
everyone's needs are different and continue to grow as you age. Human needs of
the object or service can give satisfaction to the man himself, both physical
satisfaction and spiritual satisfaction. In meeting their needs, human need fulfillment
tool. The tools provided by nature or humans through the production process.
Human efforts to meet their needs never end. Therefore, humans need to act
rationally in order to achieve satisfactory subsistence.
1.2. Factors Affecting Human Needs
Why the need arise and continue to grow? The need arises because of the
physical demands and / or psychic in order to live well. The need continues to
grow because people have not satisfied the nature of subsistence. This
situation resulted in the human need to be unlimited. Human presence in social
life makes humans different from each other in meeting their needs. Why
different human needs? Different human needs because it is influenced by the
following factors.
a. Natural state (place)
Natural conditions resulted in a difference in meeting human needs. People
who live in the polar regions, need thick clothes to withstand the cold.
Another case with us who live in the tropics, which is thin enough to wear
clothes. Therefore, it appears here that the state can encourage human nature
to want the goods in accordance with natural conditions at the place in
question.
b. Religion and Confidence
Teachings of different religions can lead to different needs. For example,
adherents of Islam are forbidden to eat pork, while the Hindus forbidden to eat
beef. This suggests that each religion requires tools specific needs that must
be used in performing worship. Moreover in the case of religious celebrations,
each religion or belief different, so the demand for products is also
different. For example, on the eve of Eid-ul-Fitr, the need for Muslim clothing
will rise sharply. By contrast, when the feast of Christmas, the Christians
need a Christmas tree and Christmas gifts. Thus each religion or belief have
different needs.
c. Mores
Customs and traditions prevailing in the society greatly affects people's
living needs. The reason, a custom or tradition will affect both the behavior
and the purpose of life of local communities.
As a result of different traditions will lead to different needs. For example,
the marriage ceremony. The ceremony will vary between regions. Wedding ceremony
in Central Java in West Sumatra will have different rituals, so that their
needs will be different.
d. Levels Civilizations
The higher the civilization of a society more and more needs and the higher the
quality or the quality of goods required. In the olden times, people still need
a little. However, as the development of civilization, human needs more and
more. Humans will try to meet their needs in order to achieve prosperity. First
humans did not require a motorcycle, but a motorcycle now become a very
important need, because it can minimize the time to destination. Besides the
taste of modern human needs have also increased. Human demands high quality of
the goods or services required. Thus proving that the development of
civilization would lead to the need for developing and diverse.
In addition, the infinity of the necessities of life is influenced among other
factors:
1. age level
2. level of education
3. advances in science and technology
4. income levels
5. population
6. socio-cultural environment
7. promotion of certain products (advertising)
8. geographical differences
9. religion and confidence
1.3. Various Kinds of Human Needs
Human needs are unlimited and diverse it can be divided into some form of
needs, namely the need based on intensity, shape and nature, a subject in need,

Primary needs of each person will be the same. Surely everyone would need a
house for his residence. Eating for survival, drinking to relieve thirst, as
well as clothing to keep the body from heat and cold. You will also need these
items, do not you? As with the sekuder and tertiary needs. Every person has the
secondary and tertiary needs different. Try, just watch in the neighborhood
where you live. For low-income communities, the need for motorcycle into a
luxurious necessity. However, in contrast to high-income earners. The need for
a motorcycle to be a secondary requirement. Secondary needs can sometimes be a
primary requirement for most people. However, there are some people who think
sebutuhan as secondary tertiary needs. Difference is due to differences in the
needs of socio-economic level.

services. Goods are tangible fulfillment tool (can be seen), for example, food,
clothing, shoes, bags, books, and so on. While the service is a means of
satisfying the needs of the intangible (can not be seen), eg services of a
doctor, teacher, parking, and so on. Means of satisfying the needs can be
grouped based on scarcity, purpose of use, relationships with other objects, in
terms of the guarantee, and the process of making. Here are the types of means
of satisfying the requirement.
1.4.1. Equipment Needs Based Scarcity quencher
Grouping means of satisfying their needs based on their availability can be
divided into an economic good, free objects, and objects illith.
a. Economic goods
Economic goods are items needed are limited but demand a lot, so to get the
necessary sacrifices. Sacrifice is usually issued in the form of money (to buy)
or future. Examples of economic goods such as food, drinks, televisions,
clothing, and so on.
b. Free stuff
Free goods is a means of satisfying the needs of the abundant amount and not
have to sacrifice to get it. Therefore, available in large quantities, one can
take it away freely. Examples of free goods such as water in a river or in the
sea, the air around us, the ice in the polar regions, in the desert sand, and
sun. Everything that can be obtained for free.
c. Goods Illith
Illith goods are objects so that excessive amounts can be harmful and
disastrous. Therefore, their use needs to be reduced. Examples of water, if in
very small amounts can be useful for human life, but when excessive amounts may
cause flooding. Another example of fire, if the fire is small use can be used
for cooking or lighting, but when the big fire can be disastrous fire.
1.4.2. Equipment Needs Based quencher Purpose
Grouping tool needs based on their intended use can be divided into objects of
production and consumption objects.
a. Consumer Goods
Consumer goods are goods that can directly be used to meet human needs.
Consumption goods can be directly consumed by humans in order to make ends
meet. Consumer goods also called ready-made goods because the benefits can be
felt consumers. Examples of consumption include: rice, textbooks, television,
radio, computer.
b. Production of goods
Production goods are goods used in the production process to produce goods of
human needs. Goods production also called capital goods. Examples include the
production of goods: machines can be used breeder hatching eggs to hatch
chickens or ducks. Rice Mill machine / grinder rice, which is used to grind
rice into rice and rice bran.
1.4.3. Goods Based Production Process
Grouping tool needs based on the manufacturing process can be divided into raw
materials, semi-finished and finished goods.
a. Crude goods
Raw materials (raw material) are goods used as raw materials or raw material
for processing into semi-finished goods or finished goods. The use of
high-value goods if it has been processed first. Examples of raw materials such
as cotton, rubber, sheep leather, wood, and rice. These materials still require
further processing when we need it.
b. Intermediate Goods
Intermediate goods are items that still require the production process to be
used as a ready-made or finished material. In order to high-value,
semi-finished goods to be reprocessed. Examples of semi-finished goods, such as
yarn to make fabric, fabric to form clothing, leather for making bags, and so
on.
c. Finished Goods
Finished goods are goods which are ready for use and is the final result of the
production. Finished goods have to undergo a series of production processes so
as to create production ready to be consumed to make ends meet. Examples of
finished goods, such as clothing, footwear, vehicles, and electronic equipment.
1.4.4. Equipment Requirements Based on
Facet collateral quencher
Based on the terms of the loan guarantees, equipment needs can be divided into
movable and immovable objects.
a. Moving objects
Objects that can be moved around the place and can be used as collateral to get
short-term loans (duration less than 1 year) called moving objects. Examples
include moving objects: cars, jewelry, and electronic items.
b. Objects don’t move
Objects can’t be moved around the place and can be used as collateral to obtain
long-term loans called object is not moving. Examples of immovable property
such as land and buildings.

item is interchangeable with other items. For example, gas replace kerosene as
fuel, replacing the busway private car as a means of transportation to reduce
traffic congestion, and sago replace rice as a staple food.
b. Goods Komplementar
Complementary goods (complementary) is useful when used in conjunction with
other goods. The goods will have a high use value if it is used together with
other goods. For example, if the car can run with gas, pens with ink, bread
will be more delicious if spread with jam, tea with sugar, television shows can
be watched if there is a station transmitter, and a phone with a simcard.
2. Resource Scarcity Economy
Look at the environment around where you live! Through observation you can see
people trying to make ends meet by any means. Although not all of their needs
are met, people continue to try to achieve satisfaction. Ketidakterpenuhinya
necessities of life may be due to limited economic resources. In economics, it
describes the condition of scarcity.
2.1. Definition of Scarcity
What occurred in your minds when they hear the term scarcity? Is the loss of
soybean in the market? Or is the kerosene or LPG which suddenly disappeared in
the market so it makes a lot ibu-ibu/bapak-bapak have to queue up at
distributors kerosene or LPG? The two examples above illustrate the form of
scarcity. Humans in meeting their needs there is never satisfied. Human needs
are diverse and constantly there. Day by day more and more people need a good
amount, quality, and tone. Of increase was not proportional to the available
resources. Therefore, there will be some people who do not get the desired
means of satisfying needs, either because it is not able to issue the required
sacrifices (costs not covered) or because the item is out of stock. The above
conditions can be referred to as scarcity. So scarcity can mean the situation
or circumstances in which the amount of available resources is lacking or
insufficient to meet human needs. Scarcity does not mean everything that used
to make ends meet is difficult to obtain. Dearth (scarcity) is defined gap
between the limited economic resources with an unlimited number of needs.
Scarcity arises because human needs continue to grow. As a result, existing
resources are not enough to make ends meet. This situation encourages people to
make choices among various akternatif most profitable. In addition, people
should be wise and rational in allocating economic resources. According to
economics, scarcity has two meanings, namely:
a. limited, in the sense that not enough compared to the number of human needs.
b. limited, in the sense that human beings have to make sacrifices to get it.
2.2. Factors that Lead to Scarcity
Why do I have a problem of scarcity in people's lives? Resource scarcity
experienced by every person, nation, and state. Although the conditions are
different, the same basic economic problem, namely how humans meet the diverse
needs of life are faced with the availability of a limited tool needs. Problems
arise due to the scarcity of the following factors.
2.2.1. Lack of Resources
The natural environment provides abundant resources for the fulfillment of
human needs. Natural resources can be classified into a resource that can be
updated and can not be updated. However, the amount of resources will be
increasingly berkutang due to the greedy nature of man.
2.2.2. Geographical differences
Geographical location of different causes resource distribution is uneven.
There are areas where the land is fertile and rich in minerals. There are also
areas barren and lack of clean water. The geographic differences can lead to
resource scarcity.
2.2.3. Population Growth imbalance
According to Thomas Robert Malthus, demographers and political economy of the
UK, the rate of population growth is faster than the rate of production growth.
Rapid population growth is not followed with production. As a result, the
production can not meet the diverse needs of human life.
2.2.4. Low Production Capability
Availability of equipment needs can be met if there is a person or entity who
undertakes the production. Production capabilities affect the availability of
goods and services as a means of fulfillment. Limited production capability
would result in lower production capacity. It can menimpulkan
ketidakterpenuhinya human needs. Production limitations caused by the low
capacity of human resources used in the production process.
2.2.5. The slow development of technology
The technology used in the production process manufacturers are not comparable
with the population growth. Manufacturers need time to implement the new
production technology, while the growing needs of human life. The slow pace of
development and application of technology lead unfulfilled human needs.
2.2.6. Natural Disaster
Natural disasters are natural factors that could affect subsistence. Natural
disasters can cause damage to the environment and therefore contributes to
human survival. Examples floods could hamper the distribution of goods and
services. Keterlembatan this will cause people can not immediately consume
goods and services.
2.3. Limitations of Economic Resources
Scarcity can occur if the available resources are limited while demand is not
limited in number. Human needs will continue to grow in line with population
growth. Although people try to reproduce a tool or item to make ends meet, but
the resources and means of production are limited in number.
Limitations of existing resources can be proved from the following example.
2.3.1. Limitations of Natural Resources
Natural resources are resources that exist in nature and can be used to meet
human needs. The existence of natural resources are also limited. Limitations
can be seen from a few examples of these resources.
a. Water
Humans use water, especially clean water for drinking, bathing, washing
clothes, washing dishes, and so on. In the big cities to get clean water is
very difficult. They have to buy water from PAM (water company). This suggests
that water availability is very limited.
b. Forest
Forests are a natural resource of great importance. First forest in Indonesia
being the world's lungs. In addition, the results of the forest such as rattan,
resin, and wood can be utilized to meet the needs of human beings. Forests can
also be used as a water catchment so as to prevent flooding. But now its
existence is very worrying. It is because many people who cut down trees in the
forest without noticing its preservation so that today many hutanhutan bare.
You must know whether the result of deforestation? Yes, one of which can cause
flooding. In addition, forest resources that can be utilized by humans to meet
the needs of increasingly reduced in number.
2.3.2. Limitations of Human Resources
Human resources are also limited existence. That is the quality of human
resources and has good morals are few in number. Quality of human resources in
Indonesia when compared to the quality of human resources in developed
countries are still far behind. The ability to process existing resources is
still low. So that goods are produced is still low anyway both quantity and
quality. This suggests that the quality of human resources are limited.
2.3.3. Capital Resource Limitations
Capital resources may be machines, raw materials or other equipment. Evidenced
by the limited sources of capital equipment used in the production of still
using low-tech machines. This can affect the continuity of the production
process of goods.
2.3.4. Enterprise Resource Limitations
Entrepreneurial resource is a resource that is able to combine the natural
resources, human resources, and capital resources. People who have an
entrepreneurial spirit are still few in number. Therefore at least one who is
able to bring together existing resources can affect the amount of production.
So that it can affect the existence of means of satisfying the needs in the
community. Limitations on the resources if used to meet needs that are not
limited to cause scarcity of means of satisfying the requirement. Shortages can
be caused by the following factors.
Population growth is not balanced by the growth of
production.
1. Availability of natural resources are limited.
2. Limited human capabilities.
3. Greedy nature of humans.

Grouping means of satisfying their needs based on their availability can be divided into an economic good, free objects, and objects illith.
a. Economic goods
Economic goods are items needed are limited but demand a lot, so to get the necessary sacrifices. Sacrifice is usually issued in the form of money (to buy) or future. Examples of economic goods such as food, drinks, televisions, clothing, and so on.
b. Free stuff
Free goods is a means of satisfying the needs of the abundant amount and not have to sacrifice to get it. Therefore, available in large quantities, one can take it away freely. Examples of free goods such as water in a river or in the sea, the air around us, the ice in the polar regions, in the desert sand, and sun. Everything that can be obtained for free.
c. Goods Illith
Illith goods are objects so that excessive amounts can be harmful and disastrous. Therefore, their use needs to be reduced. Examples of water, if in very small amounts can be useful for human life, but when excessive amounts may cause flooding. Another example of fire, if the fire is small use can be used for cooking or lighting, but when the big fire can be disastrous fire.
1.4.2. Equipment Needs Based quencher Purpose
Grouping tool needs based on their intended use can be divided into objects of production and consumption objects.
a. Consumer Goods
Consumer goods are goods that can directly be used to meet human needs. Consumption goods can be directly consumed by humans in order to make ends meet. Consumer goods also called ready-made goods because the benefits can be felt consumers. Examples of consumption include: rice, textbooks, television, radio, computer.
b. Production of goods
Production goods are goods used in the production process to produce goods of human needs. Goods production also called capital goods. Examples include the production of goods: machines can be used breeder hatching eggs to hatch chickens or ducks. Rice Mill machine / grinder rice, which is used to grind rice into rice and rice bran.
1.4.3. Goods Based Production Process
Grouping tool needs based on the manufacturing process can be divided into raw materials, semi-finished and finished goods.
a. Crude goods
Raw materials (raw material) are goods used as raw materials or raw material for processing into semi-finished goods or finished goods. The use of high-value goods if it has been processed first. Examples of raw materials such as cotton, rubber, sheep leather, wood, and rice. These materials still require further processing when we need it.
b. Intermediate Goods
Intermediate goods are items that still require the production process to be used as a ready-made or finished material. In order to high-value, semi-finished goods to be reprocessed. Examples of semi-finished goods, such as yarn to make fabric, fabric to form clothing, leather for making bags, and so on.
c. Finished Goods
Finished goods are goods which are ready for use and is the final result of the production. Finished goods have to undergo a series of production processes so as to create production ready to be consumed to make ends meet. Examples of finished goods, such as clothing, footwear, vehicles, and electronic equipment.
1.4.4. Equipment Requirements Based on Facet collateral quencher
Based on the terms of the loan guarantees, equipment needs can be divided into movable and immovable objects.
a. Moving objects
Objects that can be moved around the place and can be used as collateral to get short-term loans (duration less than 1 year) called moving objects. Examples include moving objects: cars, jewelry, and electronic items.
b. Objects don’t move
Objects can’t be moved around the place and can be used as collateral to obtain long-term loans called object is not moving. Examples of immovable property such as land and buildings.
1.4.5. Relationships According goods with other goods
Grouping tool in conjunction with the needs of other items are described as follows.
a. Substitute Goods
Substitutes (substitutes) is used to replace the function of other goods. This item is interchangeable with other items. For example, gas replace kerosene as fuel, replacing the busway private car as a means of transportation to reduce traffic congestion, and sago replace rice as a staple food.
b. Goods Komplementar
Complementary goods (complementary) is useful when used in conjunction with other goods. The goods will have a high use value if it is used together with other goods. For example, if the car can run with gas, pens with ink, bread will be more delicious if spread with jam, tea with sugar, television shows can be watched if there is a station transmitter, and a phone with a simcard.
2. Resource Scarcity Economy
Look at the environment around where you live! Through observation you can see people trying to make ends meet by any means. Although not all of their needs are met, people continue to try to achieve satisfaction. Ketidakterpenuhinya necessities of life may be due to limited economic resources. In economics, it describes the condition of scarcity.
2.1. Definition of Scarcity
What occurred in your minds when they hear the term scarcity? Is the loss of soybean in the market? Or is the kerosene or LPG which suddenly disappeared in the market so it makes a lot ibu-ibu/bapak-bapak have to queue up at distributors kerosene or LPG? The two examples above illustrate the form of scarcity. Humans in meeting their needs there is never satisfied. Human needs are diverse and constantly there. Day by day more and more people need a good amount, quality, and tone. Of increase was not proportional to the available resources. Therefore, there will be some people who do not get the desired means of satisfying needs, either because it is not able to issue the required sacrifices (costs not covered) or because the item is out of stock. The above conditions can be referred to as scarcity. So scarcity can mean the situation or circumstances in which the amount of available resources is lacking or insufficient to meet human needs. Scarcity does not mean everything that used to make ends meet is difficult to obtain. Dearth (scarcity) is defined gap between the limited economic resources with an unlimited number of needs. Scarcity arises because human needs continue to grow. As a result, existing resources are not enough to make ends meet. This situation encourages people to make choices among various akternatif most profitable. In addition, people should be wise and rational in allocating economic resources. According to economics, scarcity has two meanings, namely:
a. limited, in the sense that not enough compared to the number of human needs.
b. limited, in the sense that human beings have to make sacrifices to get it.
2.2. Factors that Lead to Scarcity
Why do I have a problem of scarcity in people's lives? Resource scarcity experienced by every person, nation, and state. Although the conditions are different, the same basic economic problem, namely how humans meet the diverse needs of life are faced with the availability of a limited tool needs. Problems arise due to the scarcity of the following factors.
2.2.1. Lack of Resources
The natural environment provides abundant resources for the fulfillment of human needs. Natural resources can be classified into a resource that can be updated and can not be updated. However, the amount of resources will be increasingly berkutang due to the greedy nature of man.
2.2.2. Geographical differences
Geographical location of different causes resource distribution is uneven. There are areas where the land is fertile and rich in minerals. There are also areas barren and lack of clean water. The geographic differences can lead to resource scarcity.
2.2.3. Population Growth imbalance
According to Thomas Robert Malthus, demographers and political economy of the UK, the rate of population growth is faster than the rate of production growth. Rapid population growth is not followed with production. As a result, the production can not meet the diverse needs of human life.
2.2.4. Low Production Capability
Availability of equipment needs can be met if there is a person or entity who undertakes the production. Production capabilities affect the availability of goods and services as a means of fulfillment. Limited production capability would result in lower production capacity. It can menimpulkan ketidakterpenuhinya human needs. Production limitations caused by the low capacity of human resources used in the production process.
2.2.5. The slow development of technology
The technology used in the production process manufacturers are not comparable with the population growth. Manufacturers need time to implement the new production technology, while the growing needs of human life. The slow pace of development and application of technology lead unfulfilled human needs.
2.2.6. Natural Disaster
Natural disasters are natural factors that could affect subsistence. Natural disasters can cause damage to the environment and therefore contributes to human survival. Examples floods could hamper the distribution of goods and services. Keterlembatan this will cause people can not immediately consume goods and services.
2.3. Limitations of Economic Resources
Scarcity can occur if the available resources are limited while demand is not limited in number. Human needs will continue to grow in line with population growth. Although people try to reproduce a tool or item to make ends meet, but the resources and means of production are limited in number.
Limitations of existing resources can be proved from the following example.
2.3.1. Limitations of Natural Resources
Natural resources are resources that exist in nature and can be used to meet human needs. The existence of natural resources are also limited. Limitations can be seen from a few examples of these resources.
a. Water
Humans use water, especially clean water for drinking, bathing, washing clothes, washing dishes, and so on. In the big cities to get clean water is very difficult. They have to buy water from PAM (water company). This suggests that water availability is very limited.
b. Forest
Forests are a natural resource of great importance. First forest in Indonesia being the world's lungs. In addition, the results of the forest such as rattan, resin, and wood can be utilized to meet the needs of human beings. Forests can also be used as a water catchment so as to prevent flooding. But now its existence is very worrying. It is because many people who cut down trees in the forest without noticing its preservation so that today many hutanhutan bare. You must know whether the result of deforestation? Yes, one of which can cause flooding. In addition, forest resources that can be utilized by humans to meet the needs of increasingly reduced in number.
2.3.2. Limitations of Human Resources
Human resources are also limited existence. That is the quality of human resources and has good morals are few in number. Quality of human resources in Indonesia when compared to the quality of human resources in developed countries are still far behind. The ability to process existing resources is still low. So that goods are produced is still low anyway both quantity and quality. This suggests that the quality of human resources are limited.
2.3.3. Capital Resource Limitations
Capital resources may be machines, raw materials or other equipment. Evidenced by the limited sources of capital equipment used in the production of still using low-tech machines. This can affect the continuity of the production process of goods.
2.3.4. Enterprise Resource Limitations
Entrepreneurial resource is a resource that is able to combine the natural resources, human resources, and capital resources. People who have an entrepreneurial spirit are still few in number. Therefore at least one who is able to bring together existing resources can affect the amount of production. So that it can affect the existence of means of satisfying the needs in the community. Limitations on the resources if used to meet needs that are not limited to cause scarcity of means of satisfying the requirement. Shortages can be caused by the following factors.
Population growth is not balanced by the growth of production.
1. Availability of natural resources are limited.
2. Limited human capabilities.
3. Greedy nature of humans.
