I just read this compelling account on the state of international
maritime transport and the scurge of piracy on the seas of the world.

It got me to thinking of what we should expect of the transport that
will be occuring between the Habitats and the industrial facilities
in orbit.
I see no reason why such transports wouldn't be owned by companies
operating under a free-enterprise model.
If you do read the article keep in mind that the state of maritime
transport may be the model for orbital transport of the future.
