Yes but what if when they raised it, it broke? And was ruined forever.

no, it should not be raised. Why? It is a grave site. To raise it would be extremely disrespectful, and a lot of people (including descendants of those who died) would be very upset, and rightfully so.

I agree. That's like my Aunt's grave being dug up and soemone just throwing her out into the garbage... It's disrepectful to those who died on that ship.

On the other hand it is a great piece of history.

But still! Raising the Titanic could cause an uproar. And Lord knows President Bush(Ugh) doesn't need anymore of that since this war in Iraq was started...

I find very little reason to raise the Titanic. It's a grave site and once we raise it, what's there to learn? We know what the ship looked like, how the passengers dressed, what they ate, and most importantly, we knew how the ship sank. Why invest millions into a project to raise a rusty hull full of knick-knacks and possibly bodies? It's a waste.

Very well put. America really doesn't have the money to waste on something like that.

I think it would be to big to be raised and also it broke into two or more pieces which means the parts where it had broken off would have collapsed and are quite far apart from each other on the bottom of the ocean. Also since it's made of metal being at the bottom of the ocean things rust and if you tried to raise it I think it would collapse under itself, also it would be extremely heavy the interior design would have fallen to pieces and then there is the weight of the water inside and around it. So not only are you rasing a huge metal ship but the water around / inside it would also be extremely heavy.

Also any one seen the movie Raise The Titanic or read the book? I've seen the movie and I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be that easy.

"...the debt stood at $8,369,526,197,055.36." That was yesterday. But hey, what's a few more million, right? That seems to be the government's way of thinking.

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.
