hummmm - seems like a waste of scrap metal to me - takes a lot of steel to make a carrier

It costs taxpayers $1,800,000.00 just to clean a ship so that it is environmentally sound to destroy or sink. The costs of dismantling are recouped through recycling the boat. 90%+ of the steel used for new ships is recycled from these old ships. Shipbuilders prefer the old steel. Steel from the World Trade Center was used on the stem of the USS New York.
I love TLC and the Discovery Channel.
