Simple make Congress read the bills before they are passed. Somehow Congress passed a 1000 plus page document in a day, anyone think they read it or it was on a shelf waiting for a chance to get it through?
Actually what I'm figuring from the way things are going is more something along the lines of Stephen Baxter's Titan. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titan_(Stephen_Baxter) Probably a more likely scenario of what will happen from a resource allocation and political standpoint.
Anyone remember Challenger? Good weather is a nice thing to have when your launching under any conditions. I remember many, many launches delayed/postponed simply due to the possibility of an incoming storm,add this to the deleterious effects of not being near the equator and your guess is as good as mine why they are locating in that region. Government subsidy? Canada wants a space program? I Dunno but the reason has to be there, somone should follow the money.

Soldiers of the future will look a whole lot more like the guys I see at QuakeCon.
