America no longer has the money to build another Titanic.

Or provide decent public services, support to its people, or financial stability in general.

New safety features would make it very difficult. Ice patrol, radios on 24/7, etc.
Large cannons on the front to obliterate any form of ice.

Well, Clive Palmer is already making Titanic II so I am happy now. Saving up for the maiden voyage, I'll tell ya what happens after it sinks. :P

As many of you may know, tonight of April 14th 2012 is the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the ill fated RMS Titanic.
I've wondered for years to come why they haven't rebuilt it, All they would have to do is make the ship reach safety standards of Modern times, such as adding enough lifeboats, making it built from a stronger material, and much more. The total cost would range from 300,000,000 dollars to 500,000,000 dollars, which is costly, but a modern cruise ship takes about 900,000,000 dollars to build.
Discuss.

There are safety regulations that have to be followed, and to modern standards, the Titanic doesn't reach those standards

I honor the Titanic when I play STO. All my ships are named after various maritime disasters and a couple air mishaps. I have yet to hear anyone complain to me in game about it, so for those who would be butt hurt over a rebuilding of a Titanic they are massively out numbered by people who would think it was a neat idea even if the ship never sailed, but was docked as an history museum.
