No one has spent a quadrillion dollars to make antimatter -- the point is, it WOULD cost that much to make a GRAM... and a GRAM of antimatter would consist of many billions of particles! We’ve only produced microscopic amounts at a time, nothing near a gram.

Sorry, but the matter-antimatter concept has been around a /lot/ longer than 5 years. I assume you meant that antimatter has been /proven/ to exist for about 5 years. I have no idea whether or not that is correct, and I’m not going to look it up right now.
