I'm OK with rocket science on the public dolla being difficult and frustrating. They have to answer to Congresspeople that don't believe in dinosaurs ... who represent people that don't believe in science. And I don't trust private industry. It needs regulation. And those regulations can't be made by people who don't believe in dinosaurs.
Is there some kind of regulation you feel commercial rockets are currently lacking? There are already multiple licenses from the FAA and FCC required to launch a rocket and put a payload in space. NASA has deep involvement as a customer if it is their payload or their astronauts or coming close to the ISS.
