Scarcity is the fundamental challenge that all individuals and nations must confront. Everyone faces some limitations, so we all have to make choices where we limit or allow ourselves to something.

Economists generally recognize four types of economic systems traditional, traditional, command, market and mixed.

A traditional economic system is shaped by tradition. The work that people do, the goods and services they provide, how they exchange resources… all tend to follow a pattern. The traditional system is bad at addressing scarcity because scarcity is formed off of new requirements people have through the ages and a traditional system would not evolve just as our requirements would.

In a planned economy, the government controls the economy. The state decides how to use and distribute resources. The government regulates prices and wages; it may even determine what sorts of work individuals do.
Socialism is a prime example of a planned economy. Socialism does not work because it is not consistent with the fundamental principles of human behavior. The failure of socialism in countries around the world can be traced to one critical defect: it is a system that ignores incentives.

Market economies allow all economic decisions to be made by individuals. The unrestrained interactions between individuals and companies in the marketplace determine what happens to all the good and resources.Individuals choose how to invest their personal resources and individuals decide what to consume. Within a pure market economy,  the government is entirely absent from economic affairs.

A mixed economic system combines elements of the market and command economy. Many economic decisions are made in the market by individuals. But the government also plays a role in the allocation and distribution of resources.

If scarcity is looked at on a macro level, the best economic system is mixed because it allows the government to also plays a role in the allocation and distribution of resources, while the individuals still stay happy because they have some control. The only problem is the eternal question of what the right mix between the public and private sectors of the economy should be.

There is no point to look at it on a micro level because almost no country is small enough to be considered on that level.

Answer:

I believe that the planned economic system is the most effective to combat scarcity problems.

Explanation:

The planned economy is one where all the production of national goods and services is totally and previously planned by a group of economic experts who know well the means of national production and the amount of consumption that the country's population establishes. For this reason, this type of economic system is able to predict moments of scarcity by developing guidelines to avoid them, they are also able to avoid problems of scarcity, since everything is highly planned.

All of the following characteristics describe which river?
Damm [24]

The correct option is A. All of the chart characteristics describe the Mississippi River.

The Mississippi is a long river in the center of the United States that flows south through ten states (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana) until it drains into the Gulf of Mexico, near New Orleans. It has a length of 3734 km.

Agriculture and varied industries depend on the Mississippi. Although human beings have used it as a navigable way to move from one place to another and establish trade, it was from the arrival of the colonizers that it became an essential route for the shipment of coal, steel, oil and agricultural products.

Of all commercial products, cotton was the most important until the beginning of the 20th century, but agriculture in the soil of its basin continued to be a prominent economic activity. Other important crops have been rice, corn, peanuts, sugar cane, potatoes, hay and wheat.
