How can a city own all the ad space when there's private property? What stops a property owner from putting up a billboard and renting it out?
- MichaelZuo 3y agoLaws against privately putting up a billboard anywhere that can be seen from a public space, without prior municipal approval.
- amadeuspagel 3y agoSo the monopoly isn't just there because the city happens to own all the existing ad space, but is rather something legally created, and then sold to a private company.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoWell yes, everything in a city is 'legally created'.
