You're seem to be a monumental [ idiot | troll ], just not sure which.

As was already pointed out, we already have mined small quantities of material on the Moon and shipped it back to Earth. Even if you're not bright enough to see that it is possible, that should convince you. The open questions have nothing to do with possibility, and everything to do with cost effectiveness, which partly depends on the actual make up of the various local bodies. For example, if we found an asteroid made essentially of pure gold, it could quite easily be cost effective right now to drag back a few tons of it.
