Looking at the Cheap Ass website, Kill Dr. Lucky has, sadly, gone out of print. However, there is still Save Dr. Lucky... which is the game you play before you play Kill Dr. Lucky.
Interesting thoughts on 4e. My guess is that I wouldn't like it if it is that combat-oriented. I was introduced to RPGs in college, and the group I was in was very "combat light" - which is probably part of why a lot of us liked White Wolf's (old) World of Darkness so well. Their combat system was so clunky that the GM would generally avoid having much combat... and none of us missed it.
Oh, and don't worry about getting economics in. Just a case of expectations being violated - and that's not necessarily a bad thing!
