The Needs of the People
Man does not live in isolation but is part of society and thus internalizes and
contributes to its principles.
Criteria also change over time. In the past, for example, education was not
considered a necessity, but here and now, one has the right (even the duty) to
basic education, and for the capable and deserving, even higher education.
The hierarchy of needs is therefore determined by society, and for this reason,
the modern state ensures (or at least attempts to ensure) education and
healthcare for all, but not luxury items like jewelry and yachts.
