We do.  We've had the ability to do so for many years.  It's not difficult
or complicated or expensive.  It requires no new technology, no new
standards, no new software.

What we lack is the *will* to do so.  As succinctly put by Paul Vixie
on NANOG a while back:

        If you give people the means to hurt you, and they do it, and
        you take no action except to continue giving them the means to
        hurt you, and they take no action except to keep hurting you,
        then one of the ways you can describe the situation is "it isn't
        scaling well".
