This bureaucracy has not come from Mars, you know... I'm still at loss how people in California can invent technologies which alter the whole course of the civilization but are stuck with the government which is, by any outsider account, certifiably insane - and don't even try to do anything of effect about it. Or maybe the said people just have enough money that they don't care? After all, if things go bad you can always take your money and move to the next country which haven't go bad yet.

It's probably the low probability of success, combined with irreversible tarnishing of reputation and threat of prosecution upon failure.
