I consider any law system for which high school students could not memorize and understand all of the law* in one semester to be flawed.
Contrary to what I just said, I would impose taxes (or tax scalars) for corporations based upon polluting. The first target would be PCBs.
[Edit: I had said: for corporations, but that would be too easy to dodge. Craft the law to target things dumped by corporations, and don't say 'corporations' specifically.]
*Maybe 'all applicable law', but that might be getting into dangerous territory.
