Economics is the science of making ends meet using resources that are not in abundant supply. This, in my view, is in support of Becker's Idea.
How does Economics help to maximize the use of scarce resources?
As a social science that studies economic decisions and helps to fine-tune them, subjects such as opportunity cost and comparative advantage help to distinguish between activities that are high yielding and those that are not.
The economist or decision-maker must then channel resources to the activities that will produce the best or most product, service and or result.
