@feonixrift Yeah. Living in a society is the ultimate luxury.

I'm bringing some of my own baggage to this.

Years back a friend on G+ noted that Malsow's Hierarchy made far more sense as a set of need and security PAIRS.

So: physical needs (food, clothing, shelter) and security in those. Social needs (companionship, love, community) and security in those. Similarly recognition and self-actualisation levels. Maslow only addresses security at one level, but it's really paired with each individual set of needs.

There's also Maslow's Smartphone https://old.reddit.com/r/dredmorbius/comments/2vwfb6/maslows_smartphone_the_role_of_technology_in/

And Maslow's Swimming Pool

#TIL Manfred Max-Neef's Fundamental human needs

Human Scale Development is basically community development and is "focused and based on the satisfaction of fundamental human needs, on the generation of growing levels of self-reliance, and on the construction of organic articulations of people with nature and technology, of global processes with local activity, of the personal with the social, of planning with autonomy and of civil society with the state. Human needs, self-reliance, and organic articulations are the pillars which support Human Scale Development." ...
