Currently space is a $330 billion a year industry providing things like pictures of the Earth, communication, etc with a bit of science thrown in. And there are a bunch of other useful things people want to do in space which are currently infeasible because access to space is too expensive. If access prices go down we should expect the dollar value of the off Earth economy to go up and more people up there to do things like repairs. EDIT: And Blue Origin and SpaceX both use liquid fuel rockets exclusively which cause very little ozone depletion. There combustion byproducts are entirely made from oxygen, hydrogen, and carbon with no nitrogen or chlorine mixed in. EDIT2: Also, apart from the danger of ozone depletion there really isn't any harm in "poking holes in the atmosphere". The atmosphere is a fluid, it flows back together just fine after the rocket passes.
