[PEN-L:3487] Tragedy of the Commons <36CA4D61.361687D2@igc.org> <v04003a00b2f08a22b618@[128.32.105.161]>
Hardin's story is a myth. In truth, the communities that he describes had
customs and institutions that kept the amount of livestock in check. But after
the land became privatized all hell broke loose.
Brad might be correct about his understanding of the wells, but I want to
correct his historical allusion (illusion) about the tragedy of the commons.
