OK, then require the externalities to be mitigated rather than priced. Then the market can find a price for mitigation.

1) who will the price/cost be billed to? 2) "free markets" operate on a 1-unit-of-currency/1-vote basis. If you want to go ahead and tell everyone that the rich will get their desired outcomes, just because, be my guest. Not sure that's the flavor of the month/year/decade/century.
