True enough, with the new asteroid field settings in SE4 Gold:

Recently in a TDM game I set up shop in two asteroid field sectors. I sent a constructor ship with sat layers. Dropped a large miner sat, rad sat, and the occasional farm sat at each spot, topped off with a small sat with stealth armor.
I wasn't really rolling in resources, but I went MEE, and the free resources was kinda nice, kept paying the maintenance bills until I could capture some nice worlds.
I wouldn't want to base my economy on it though
