Say the Government decided to subsidize 75% of all launch costs for American companies? Like say an Atlas V and Delta IV costs $100million to launch, and say a company decides to use the Atlas V(The company can choose wahtever launch platform it wants), the government would pay $75million and the company launching into space would pay $25million.<br /><br />Heck, the government wouldn't even have to subsidize 75%, even 25% would be good!<br /><br />Of course they wouldn't do this forever, just for say 15-20 years.<br /><br />Inspiration comes from this article http://www.thespacereview.com/article/361/1

1) Non-US telecom firms would stage a riot at next WTO meeting<br /><br />2) Launch providers would suddenly quadruple their prices because ... uh ... recent increase in propellant costs!
