We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
I don't think many would claim it makes it immune to scarcity. The purpose of labelling it a "human right" is to make the problem of resolving the scarcity (for those who lack the product or service) everyone else's responsibility .
