Trivia of the Month --- Answer

Book Jacket for: The Oxford dictionary of philosophy
The question was what is meant by the phrase “free rider.”  To quote directly from our source: 
Free riders are those who are content to partake of the benefits of some cooperative enterprise, without contributing to it.
The question, and answer, were taken from p. 141 of the Oxford Dictionary of Philosophy by Simon Blackburn.  The book was published in 2005 by the Oxford University Press.
