Running around 20 years into a conventional start with something like 3 times my population income from taxing shipping. I had 75 mines in transit at one time. Not needing to pay for infrastructure after the first 3000 I built? Worth the savings in duranium, definitely.
I think the civilian economy invented more duranium than existed on my home planet. I get the giggles looking at the share price. Yeah, there was some government subsidies, but it is still a hundred fold return a little more than a decade after the invention of the Nuclear Thermal drive.
