    Why?

    Are we not ruining Earth enough and need more stuff to ruin, or do the rich want somewhere to go when they have destroyed things for the rest of us?

    I mean I love space, and I’d love to move to a retirement community on the moon (I’ve even come up with a crappy slogan! “1/6 the gravity makes old bodies feel new again!”) but for real, why do we need commercial enterprise in the moon? Can’t we just have a nice moon that isn’t ruined by capitalism like literally everything else it touches?
