Today, if Joe Business gets lots of spam, it is not his ISP's responsibility. He has no-one to take responsibility for this problem off his hands.

That is something that businesses will pay for.

But first, ISPs have to put their hands up and take collective responsibility for Internet email as a service that has value and not just as some kind of loss leader for Internet access services.
