When thinking about the goa'uld, the Ori, the Tokra and the wraith, and who knows who else, I keep wondering how on earth (no pun intended) they FUNDED all of their enormously expension operations. Down here there is always talk about the Pentagon, the international committee, etc., budgets, etc. but the aliens seem to never have any limits to their budgets, to the money available for their huge operations and expenses.
One enormous pyramid ship must cost the equivalent of a few billion dollars alone. Even a zat gun or a cloaking device used by the sodans must have been worth millions of dollars in our currency. I realize that naquadah would be a source of income, but I don't think anything could have covered the limitless amount of alien technology and power that we see.
By the way, how costly is it to reproduce normal earth gravity in space ships? Say half a billion dollars per vessel?
