From the WSJ - a letter to the editor in reply to a letter to the editor:

Letters to the Editor WSJ wrote:The Tragedy of the Commons

A letter writer (May 4) wants to know why environmental mandates are necessary if the policies “make perfect sense.” Because Americans care so little about the environment, they have to be forced to do the right thing.

[I omit the letter writer's name.]

The WSJ title for this letter "The Tragedy of the Commons" is very perceptive.
