Along the lines of a future Moon economy being planned to kick in through the 90's, I have to add to that last post, today we have a myriad of private space rocketry companies as a result of the tech developed toward Moon exploration/exploitation. It would have been perfect timing had we started work ON the Moon as was most likely by the end of the 90's had we persisted beyond Apollo. The last guy on the Moon was the only PhD geologist to go there. Kinda like, "case closed".
We scotched the Moon but the tech remained as all that was left of the original financial planning...going off gold and the like...paving the road for the boom.
But the internet bubble wasn't enough to carry the load that was created. More material benefit was planned for and that didn't materialize so the debt loads became destructive instead of constructive. All those dead tech companies that lost everything, housing bubbles here and there. Everything got misallocated.

It's things like constructive debt and efficiency gains that allows for very gradually lower money velocity to maintain steady state via organic growth. So...we got craters, AGW and no Moon out of it. Craters tend to grow.
