That could be a good thing or a bad thing -- since Columbia probably steals and kidnaps to get the supplies it need to run   (they cant really be selling any high tech to the world ?? or that would be a seperate plotline).

Heh, a secret 'tear' into an alternate Fort Knox to get the $$$ cash needed to buy/bribe the material they need via a ground based wing of the Floating City...
