| 单词 | free rider |
| 释义 | free rider A person or organization who benefits from a public goods, but neither provides it nor contributes to the cost of collective provision. They thus free ride on the efforts of others. The free-rider problem means that many public goods are under-provided, or have to be provided by governments which can collect taxes to pay for them. The same problem occurs internationally, when governments prefer to leave others to bear the costs of international institutions to maintain world security, and the expensive measures needed to restrain global warming or destruction of the ozone layer. |
