I agree 'They Should' tax the launches, re-entries, and those who build satellites, 'They Should' pay a 100% income tax rate. That will do 'it' - what ever 'it' is.
The fact is that most commercial launches are done by non-american companies with Europe leading the way of course. North America is also a net exporter of oxygen if you want to get picky, so if you want to clean the environment, look in your own back yard first. I've lived in four different countries in my life, 15 years in Europe and 20 years in North America. Every time I go back to visit friends or family in Europe I smirk when I see those grey scummy buildings coated in soot, and lakes and rivers that could be classified as fire hazards.
