Let the CB'ers have their fun. I fail to see anything so important or useful about ham radio that might be harmed by a little CB interference. I think hams are just jealous that the CB'ers are having more fun than we are, and that their radio service is growing while ours is shrinking. And I can certainly understand why people would not want to become hams. A lot (not all) of the hams I meet are bigger jerks than the CB'ers. This whole concept of thinking we are "superior" to anyone else is one of the main problems with our hobby. Until we stop acting that way, everyone else is going to be pointing out that "the emperor has no clothes." Ham radio is just glorified CB. Since we no longer have meaningful examinations anyway, the two radio services should probably be merged.
