Not to mention we've already seen that several people who were involved there have already left Starfleet.

We also already know there's going to be a season 2, Stewart invited Whoopi Goldberg back to be Guinan for it and she accepted.

As for economics, Starfleet itself, may not 'pay' its officers, but I'm willing to be the Federation has currency available, even if it's mainly for trade with other space-faring powers. Gotta remember that while Starfleet is part of the Federation, it doesn't represent the whole of the Federation.
Yea did seem abit out there as an idea. Could have been interesting though.
