Making flights more expensive would also address the ATC shortage, by reducing workload. Good idea.
(Econ 101 again: increased price -> reduced demand, i. e. fewer flights.)

Except that the people making these decisions are politicians. So while Econ 101 applies, so does Politics 101: don't anger voters. It's not uncommon for those two to be in conflict.
