    Mass transit should be free and not have ads on it.

    In fact, all advertising in public spaces (including things like billboards mounted on private property but aimed towards the street) should be prohibited.

      If I were “dictator for a day” one of the odd things I would do is ban all billboards. I think this every time I drive down the highway.

      For the public and environment policy that mass transit is made for (freeing up parking space; removing polluting cars from the road; reducing congestion; reducing carbon burn) yeah. Mass transit should have no usage cost

      I’ll accept public service adverts. Telling you about services, advertising health and well-being, telling you to keep your feet off the seats
