Prices need to be equal with marginal costs so that the public entity neither loses in or inordinately profits from either the provision or the maintenance of the public good. Otherwise, the good can become exclusionary and therefore not a truly public good meant for the benefit of all taxpayers. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
