Goodness!
The essential, first-order or pure concept of " public goods " is whatever we benefit from that is " non-excludable " and " non-rivalrous.

Basically, the land and the water and the plants and animals were there for the taking, and there was usually plenty so rivalry was uncommon.

By MIKE MAGEE
