EARTH TO SATURN /ets/ lets colonize saturn edition

we should really be colonising Saturn, its one of the few places a space colony would pay off economically in the short and long term, the gravity is the most similar to earth 1.065 G's, the pressure and temps a perfectly survivable at certain altitudes, and the atmosphere is primarily hydrogen and helium which can both be separated into deuterium and helium-3 using centrifuges, even though the energy cost is 10x higher to reach escape velocity the pay off makes it worth it, a 150 tonne payload rocket on saturn could launch 15 tonnes of liquid helium-3 which could supply Americas power for a entire year instantly paying off all costs of rockets ect. its much easier in operation than helium 3 from lunar regolith. we could live in floating cities and or dome cities on titan. we could become the new middle east but for helium 3 instead of oil. Discuss.
