[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] The Price reference is different because it refers (as references tend to) to an external use of money, rather than an internal. We have seen plenty of times that the Federation trades with other planets and powers. Now, it could simply offer a list of items, services and whatnot, but it could also simpify it into a monetary equivelent. If you want, you could even imply this is a new thing. Perhaps the Ferengi, when they got active in the Alpha Quadrant, assigned "credit" ratings to all the superpowers? If we assume that the Ferengi are good at that sort of thing (and all indications are that they are), perhaps the other powers picked it up and used it? Or it could be something else entirely. Perhaps a Federation Credit = one solar generator, or a single cow. But you need SOMETHING to trade with, and that means that the Federation has to have some item or service that it can offer better than other races. And vice versa. [/QB][/QUOTE]
