On the other hand, here in the US we throw out something like 60% of the food we produce and have an obesity problem. One could argue that we've kinda already reached post-scarcity for feeding people, yet people still go hungry.

I'd argue that's because we have a ton of junk food availability.
If I wanted to eat a roast and veggies from a local farm not covered in glyphosate, I'm going to pay for it.
Doritos and Cheerios are cheap af. But they're killing people.
We are arguably post scarcity of low quality corn and wheat, but what good is that? And that only comes because of subsidies.
