it's got diamond rain, man.

Keep that shit down, or the US will have to "bring freedom" to Neptune.

Diamonds aren't actually worth that much. It has a very troubled history involving exploitation and slavery among other disturbing subjects. The price is kept artificially high by a huge cartel and good marketing saying artificial diamonds aren't as good as the "real" diamonds. In reality artificial diamonds are better in every way, but I guess it's the slavery that adds that je ne sais quoi.
