Once you know that you can control say 1% of it all, you can easily see what effect you can or cannot have.
But at what cost?
How much are you willing to spend to affect the !%, or 1/10 of 1%, or 1/10000 of 1% that we might be able to do? Is that worth the many$$$$ it will cost, and the decrease in our standard of living?

I'd love to have a good baseline and evaluate the cost/ benefit over 2 or 5 year periods. Lets require such evaluation as part of any legislation.
