What if colinization can pay for itself and turn a profit?
None, zero, nada, ziltch.
Here's a deal for you. You can simply not participate,
and then when the benefits start to roll in, you will be
forcefully prevented from enjoying any of them.
The program will go faster without you anyway.
Oh, by the way. Space is already making huge stacks
of money for those participating. Space has been a
net profit for some considerable time now. There are
these things called weather satts, telecom satts, GPS,
and others. They are already producing more revenue
than is spent on space, by a lot. So you can just go
turn in your GPS, your cell phone, your internet
connection, your weather reports, etc. etc

None of those require people in space.
