We've been in debt since this country began and kept on spending. It's nothing new. You're right about the government because they know that money is just floating in the air and you can use it any time you'd like.

it is impossible. the ship is seperated into two sections, bow and stern, each about half a mile away from each other. the stern, as you can see from that wonderful photo, literally exploded on impact with the ocean floor. it is very unstable and will just fall apart. the bow, which is in better shape, is buried yards deep in the seabed, from its 30+ MPH impact with the ocean floor. it is not feasable. not to mention, think of the thousands of people who died when the titanic sank? disturbing the ship would be to disturb the graves of those thousands of people. no. its bad enough people already cut out a 2 ton section and raised it up, and put it on display, though i saw it up close and even touched it... it was incredible.. to touch a part of the legendary liner herself...

the Titanic is to fragile to raise since it has been underwater for 94 years. It is a grave but there are no human remains those are long gone all that remains of the bodies is their shoes

I thought the reason why the stern sections hull is blown outwards is because when it went under it still had air in it. And because of the unequal pressure inside the hull and outside caused it to implode under the pressure. As for the bow being almost intact is because it was already filled with water and the pressure was equal hence no implosion
