Helium Schmelium

I think I get it.
We spend billions, maybe trillions, of dollars plus the mind power of our smartest people, developing the technology required to be able to use Helium 3 in a fusion reactor.
Then (or concurrently) we spend billions, maybe trillions, on the infrastructure (including the spacecraft) that will be required to get to the moon and back with the lunar Helium 3.
Then (or concurrently) we spend billions (maybe trillions) figuring out how to militarize space so that we (the good guys) can protect our investment in Helium 3.
I am sure that ExxonMobile or Haliburton will be the best choice to manage these resources for us too.
That sounds like a way better idea than making sure we all have enough to eat (spread around what we already have) or teaching the illiterate to read (reading is fundamental) or making a decent T.V. show instead of American Idol.
Or maybe it is a good idea.........
