HOLD ON, is the Subway not public grounds? Do we not pay taxes for public transportation, pay again to use it, and we still can't sell shit there?!
Yes, there is a public good that you aren't allowed in engage in a profit making enterprise to take advantage of. "Public ground" is not the same as open, predatorial grounds.
We pay taxes on the streets and "we" still can't setup toll booth with which to shake down motorists...
Selling candies illegally isn't as obvious obnoxious as other shakedown scams but the point is it not a "victimless crime" or a situation where someone is violating some private rent-seeking effort (IE, ignoring the "intellectual property" of a patent troll). It's violating boundaries that are there because most subway riders want them there.
