1: It's extremely expensive and not profitable in any way so nobody wants to pay for it
2: It's politically difficult because no country wants any other country to have control of the moon. It could easily lead to a new world war if one country on their own managed to successfully colonize the moon.

because we can't even get a human through the Van Allen radiation belt because its too dangerous
no human will ever land on the moon without serious advances in radiation shielding technology, probably centuries away

how did they get the laser retro-reflector onto the moon without landing on it? Keep in mind it's been in use by private individuals since 1969 and we didn't really have the ability to put it up their with any automatic systems

>not profitable
This is the reason we haven't gone any further than the moon since 1971. This is also the reason we're in a large technological stagnation. When you try to reduce everything to making sure investors get more wealth, then nothing will get done.
