To kinda broadly paraphrase Carl Sagan on this,.. If humanity is to continue we cannot keep all our eggs in one basket.
I wouldn't want to live in space, I like green grass and high tides. There are, however, possibilities for others to chase. I'm sure there are opportunities for energy companies in space, to guess at one venture. The folks who build the infrastructure will be engineers etc... The world is overpopulated with militarists already, I'd hate to see space "exploration" continue in its present mode with room only for ex fighter jocks and other destroyers when builders are what is needed. Space based businesses would only hire for the specialties they need but that would include a broader cross-section of humanity than government is presently using.
