Who wants a Death Star that costs $850 Quadrillion?

So who wants to build a Death Star, I mean we might need slave labor and a fleet of star destroyers to guard it, but hey it can blow up planets (We need to get rid of a few dwarf planets anyway, like Pluto :P )

 

For contractors, we definitely need a Sith lord, we will offer generous terms like a dimly lit throne room near the power core (Guard rails optional), and if he does a good job, who knows maybe the Senate will let him be Emperor.

 

For security, building a thing that is the size of a sun, we need a lot of security. We don't currently have enough people, so let's clone a guy, who has horrible aim and probably can't run for shit. We don't even need to pay him or offer him health insurance.

 

Do I hear any opening RFP bids? :P

Look at the price tag.  Who needs a weapon that would cost more than the value of all the potential targets combined?

Dear Mr W-L,

 

After a group of rebels blew up my last Death Star, and that idiot Vader threw me down a power core, I am looking for gainful employment.

 

I have experience with both Death Stars and blowing up planets, but please note that I refuse to work with Ewoks.

 

Sincerely yours,

 

Darth Sidious (Dantius Palpatine)

But think of all the bragging rights you'd have as a country!

 

"You have the tallest manmade building? Psst! We have a Deathstar!"
