"Settlements on the Moon and in orbit will be profitable." -- Gerard K. O'Neill. Lunar outposts will mature into self-sufficient lunar settlements with mining and manufacturing which in turn will enable profitable space settlements. Is it ethical to commodify any future settlements, or is that the natural progression?
