Billions to house 10% of the population in space? I'm thinking more along the lines of tens to hundreds of Trillions.We actually don't even need another planets or moons to colonize if we can build suitable habitats in space. And yes it is possible (we actually set foot on the moon in the 1960's) but it won't ever happen with your "can't do anything" attitude.
OK, so we have two choices: We can either spend billions of dollars to build space platforms that will house say 10% of the population in space, or we can have 10% fewer people.
10% fewer people seems like a better option to me.
As far 10% fewer, you first. Oh wait... you meant someone else.
