@vgr Simply speaking, need or want is not a permanent property of, i.e., $5. It's a function of it's momentary mission-criticality. -
@theartlav In fact, people will put needs at very high risk to pursue apparent 'wants' (eg fight to death for 'honor'... why?). So very grey

@theartlav so for modern society dwellers, it's usually either a need for security of future need fulfillment OR a need for recognition
