    Welcome to late stage capitalism where air should be monetized at this point. You could make a lot of money paying people to breath and taking away all of the supply. Obviously we failed at something if the air is still free.

      The best way to keep the air clean and safe is to privatize it. Air owners will have a financial interest in keeping their air clean and can sue polluters. Meanwhile, government would just ignore (or at most monitor) pollution.

        Also, if you subscribe to an air company, and die of carbon monoxide poisoning (along with hundreds of thousands of others) due to the company’s non-existent self-regulation, then that’s your fault for not doing your research.

          and even if its the companys fault - in principle never, but just to be sure - you have to go through forced arbitration
