Great idea (Score:5, Funny)
The moon would be a great place for a prison/penal colony. The prisoners could mine water and use the water to grow wheat and other crops that they could then cheaply export back to Earth using a mass driver....

you are an eye opener. "They said so" is the best reason ever. You win an internet.

Sorry, but practically 100% of the cost of a moon colony would be spent on Earth.
Practically? Is there another planet that we can spend the money with?

So... people go out to the moon, and develop violent tendencies towards their elected officials? Where I'm from, that's called "terrorism".
You heard it here folks, proof positive that the moon causes terrorism. A well respected astronaut comes back from the moon and starts threatening government officials? And who could forget the mooninite terror attacks of 2007 [youtube.com]? It is obvious to anyone that the moon supports terrorism. I call on the president to destroy the moon, there can be no negotiations. Their invaders openly mock us with a middle finger, and they brain wash our peaceful ambassadors into terrorism like the good Edgar Mitchell mentioned above. I urge my fellow slashdotters to contact their congressmen and urge them to declare war on the moon, it's for our children's sake.
