In 2012, a proposal on the White Houses web site urging the United States government to build a real Death Star as an economic stimulus and job creation measure gained more than 25,000 signatures, enough to qualify for an official response. The official (tongue-in-cheek) response was released in January 2013[37] and noted that the cost of building a real Death Star has been estimated at $850 quadrillion, while the International Business Times cited a Centives economics blog calculation that at current rates of steel production, the Death Star would not be ready for more than 833,000 years.[38] The White House response also stated the Administration does not support blowing up planets and questions about funding a weapon with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a one-man starship as reasons for denying the petition.
