35000 American people signed a petition supporting the idea for the government to go ahead and start work on building a star wars style death star. The plans have been rejected by the white house though with them saying:
The Administration shares your desire for job creation and a strong national defense, but a Death Star isn't on the horizon. Here are a few reasons:
The construction of the Death Star has been estimated to cost more than $850,000,000,000,000,000. We're working hard to reduce the deficit, not expand it.
The Administration does not support blowing up planets.
Why would we spend countless taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a one-man starship?
Quite a good response from the white house I reckon!
