I was hoping that people who could afford to spend their on something
such as this, would do just that.

The reason for the suggestion of the space contractors owning the
adminestration corporation was so that the designers could use
off-the-shelf components as cheaply as possible.

Even if the contractors don't want to be part of the corporation, we
should still be able to use off-the-shelf components.  Supposedly, we
could have built massive space stations ten years ago with existing
technology and have space for a population of 30,000.  That should be
more true today.
