What are the opposite words for rationing?
Rationing is the distribution of limited resources or goods in a controlled or restricted manner. Its antonyms include abundance, surplus, excess, and plenty. In a situation where there is an abundance of goods or resources, there is no need for rationing. Instead, the goods or resources are readily available and accessible to everyone. A surplus refers to an excess of something that may even lead to waste. Excess implies having more than what is necessary, while plenty suggests an adequate amount of goods or resources. The antonyms of rationing, therefore, connote a situation where scarcity is non-existent and people can access and use goods and resources without any restrictions or control.
