If you think we collectively don't put a price on life consider speed limits. Nearly no one dies in accidents where cars are going less than 30mph. Yet there is no law limiting the building of cars that can go faster than 30. The reason... commerce. The current speed limits on the roads are based on the point where deaths cross over a line of acceptable vs the impact of commerce.
