So one simple but not-so-obvious fix: Require manufacturers to sell all individual components that go into their products at the same price + markup that they applied to their final product. Give them exemptions from normal "product" regulations, and boom, you've taken a large step in the direction of having a healthier industry and "planned obsolescence" isn't as economically viable anymore.
