Trying to set the moon up as a military base or start an arms race to control the most of it, is kind of ruining it, but hey move fast and break things, is what led us to fuck things up here. Let's go and try it on the nearest celestial object too. That's the most logical thing to do.
And just because the technology and resource to manage it better isn't here yet, why not start early? That works out just as planned every time on earth. It would be a piece of cake on the moon.
You guys never learn and it shows.
