People who are serious about suborbital space tourism have no plans to build a spaceport and fly tourists from the U.S.
It will take years for the U.S. government to approve such a program. In the meantime, other, less-regulated countries will build spaceports and launch tourists.
U.S. regulations won't slow down the industry...it will just prevent the U.S. from being the leader.
