i wanna say, until we have technology of the aliens film. the atmospheric processors and Hadleys hope (http://avp.wikia.com/wiki/Hadley%27s_Hope) we just wont be able to live there. your entire lifes will be spent on repairing, generating oxygen, maintaining heating systems, dealing with disasters like loss of pressurization. it would be a enormous feat for even a large country to do such a thing if there was a place like that on earth.

It's up to the people who'll live there eventually. If an Earth based government makes a law for Mars citizens who'll enforce it? The Martian people could just say "Nah, fuck that".

It will probably need to be a colony at least until it can be self sufficient. At which point, we will discover a new era of space warfare. Which will be awesome. (and awful of course).
