You could write a cool metaphor in which it’s obvious that time travel is able to fix everything, but billionaires and their government shills insists that some bad things have to happen (only to their enemies) and they have to control it.

This is real. Despite being comfortable being single it still draws looks when I go out and do things by myself. Getting told “it’s sad” when I go to a bar alone to read a book only hurts because I’m getting called sad by a weirdo, not because I felt bad about going out.
