Re: It\'s a shame about my street
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Please show me where I suggested that [/ QUOTE ] I guess you never explicitly said it, but every criticism of the free rider implicitly argues for government intervention to take care of the free rider problem. I'm sorry if I misinterpreted what you were saying, but please fill me in on the non-governmental solution you have to the free rider problem. [/ QUOTE ] Ah, you see that's the thing. There is absolutely no point to this OP. Borodog showed a simplistic example of how the "free-rider problem" is not a market failure. Goodsamaritan's example not only doesn't show a market failure, it is just as simplistic as Borodog's. How has this thread not been put to bed yet?

There is absolutely no point to this OP. Borodog showed a simplistic example of how one particular "free-rider problem" is not a market failure. Goodsamaritan's example not only doesn't show a market failure, it is just as simplistic as Borodog's. How has this thread not been put to bed yet? [/ QUOTE ] This is like proving 2 is prime, and then saying that all primes are even.
