I read the book. It turns out badly in the end, with the rebirth of the Stupid Government they thought they’d left behind.

Reminds me of an old radio science fiction tale that is about slave labor on the moon.

The bigger problem is how to get the things mined back to earth in enough volume to pay for the effort.

Senator Harrison Schmittt The Apollo 17 Astronaut, PHD in Geology with personal hands on touch of the Lunar regolith published his plan. The book is titled, "Return to the Moon"!
He proposes building a lunar colony and lunar minimg opertion to collect Helium 3 which only exists on the Moon. This He3 would be the feedstock for fusion generators built on the moon. The elctricity generated would be converted to microwaves which would be beamed to earth where it would be reconverted into electricity which would power the entire world.
This would be green energy which no earth pollution.
Imagine the education spur when mining students, mechanical engineering, and all the disciplines that would be required to colonize and mine the moon. The educational requirements would spur a genration of students who want to go into space.
I met Harrison Schmitt at the National Spaec Society Internation Space Conferenc in 2007 and believe that this is a PLAN!

Give it a rest. Relax, the current lunar mining contracts have about another 1,000 years to run. And even then, Earth will be up against some heavy hitters from outsystem. The gas giant Dwellers have held those contracts for several million years and are not about to give them up to some johnny-come-lately Earth-types.
