Helium party balloons saved from extinction
#2
Not so fast, Buckaroo Banzai. He (Helium 4) is obtained in some drilling operations (a byproduct of oil drilling) and distilled in the process. It is not easy to Manufacture, unless you're tapping the gaseous output of nuclear power plants. And then you don't get much. Theoretically you'd need another Big Bang, or at least a fusion power plant, to make more Helium. Or a big straw into the Sun or one of the gas giants in the solar system.

You won't see the price drop, and it's still a "Limited" resource.
