A lot of people = a lot of cost. That would probably settle out lower than the old classified ads, but paying even a dollar per Facebook post would be a radically different use than the present situation.
And of course you'd end up with a ban of some sort on all smaller forums and BBS that couldn't maintain compliance requirements.
