The lift and everything else are just after effects of a previous point that is positive relative to us but negative relative to the totality of stuff.

This doesn't seem to work because if light is static all objects would need to be moving toward all light sources, simultaneously, at the speed of light. It seems unworkable. For example, the simplified E = mc2 reduces to E = 0 for any value of mass, negative or otherwise. If energy is always zero, nothing happens in the universe and well, to put it one way, shit's broke and we don't exist.

I'm not saying it's reasonable, per se, but perhaps the better question is "what if c is not the upper bound for the rate at which a thing can traverse space?" I must admit, I lack the expertise to even attempt to intelligently answer that.
