At the extreme end: imagine the world without any commercial:

* Software

* Pharmaceuticals

* Books

* Music

* Movies

Now, I'm not saying that we'd arrive at that extreme, but you get the idea, no? That's "underproduction" in my mind - it'd be a poorer world with drastically smaller quantities of those things.

Leaving aside lack of pharmaceuticals, you describe my personal utopia.
