Well, I think we'd all agree that when exiting a burning theater or a sinking ship, there's some common good to be served by not being part of a panic that ultimately harms others. The issue is, does the same ethos apply in the financial examples being discussed? That's my curiousity de jour, but maybe I should just get over it (too many viewings of "It's a Wonderful Life" perhaps).
