It typically is too difficult to exclude things like police protection from some people and not others. So we would say that is non excludable. How about streaming music from satellite transmission programs? Well, most likely, since it's coming from a satellite that makes it sound like that would also be non excludable, whereas most streaming service is you have to pay for because they're being sent to your particular device. This sounds like it's just being sent out, and it wouldn't really be possible to figure out which devices were receiving the signal and which ones we're not. How about roads? Well, roads? You can always put a toll on them. Maybe that's not practical for local roads, but certainly for high highways, it is so roads could be excludable. What about primary education? Primary education? Again, it's pretty easy to exclude a child. If their parents have not paid the tuition bill, then they don't get to come into the building. It's easy to see which child has paid in which child has not. What about cell phone service? Well, unlike streaming cell phone service is sent to a particular device, and it's again easy to see if a person has paid their bill or not, and it's easy to shut off one particular phone. So from this list, it looks like the only ones that would be non excludable would be police protection and streaming service from a satellite.
