I understand that there is this ideal that everybody should have an abundance of all that is life giving and joy making. But if the reality is that that is not realistic, how does one calculate on how much and in what way all the goods will be distributed.

What "system" makes it possible for everybody in it to be satisfied?There are some, like the Amish. And there are religious communities who find equal satisfaction in the promises of their faith. I may be wrong, but I doubt those kind of systems would satisfy everyone. Maybe there is not one "ideal" system. Maybe we should be free to join or create one that satisfies us. Or maybe the closest to the ideal would be one in which everyone can find their own personal happiness which would depend on many different things, not just the differences in paychecks.
The only ones happy in the Amish society are the males who rape their sisters, their daughters and control the minds of those living in fear, better find a better role model.
