Heres A Thought

Here’s a thought

Antimatter is an essential part of warp drive. Right now it costs almost $62.5 trillion per gram, making it the most expensive substance on Earth. Zefram Cochrane invented warp travel in 2063 after society as we know it fell.

But here’s the thing. Zefram was kind of a nobody before his first warp flight. He wasn’t powerful or influential, so if money was still a thing, he’d probably be broke. He got the supplies for his shuttle by stealing or trading for them. This includes the antimatter. It’s the only way someone in his social class could get it.

None of this could have happened if he was alive in modern society. Warp drive is near impossible under capitalism
