"Fear, worry, fretting." Did I stumble onto a leftist Dr. Phil show,
where peoples' minor disagreements about econ theory are blamed on
capitalism crippling their emotions? ;)

Frankly, I just thought of the free rider problem as a technical
problem of market economies. But if people keep bringing it up in
response to your theories, I guess you'll come to see it as some big
thing which keeps people up at night.
