Titanic Two to Be Built in China-Tempting Fate?

Posted by w_thames_the_d on April 30, 2012


Some Australian billionaire, read as dumb bastard, is building the Titanic 2. What is truly poetic about the building of this ship, IMHO is
1- the knockoff will be built, where else but in China, the land of dishonesty and fakes
2- where else would you want to build a vessel that commemorates one of the worst disaster than in china?
3- I applaud it’s being built in china and hope the communist party members all get a free ride on. Her maiden voyage
4-is this idiot not tempting fate by building this in the land of disasters?

Excerpt

Australian billionaire Clive Palmer plans to build a 21st-century version of the Titanic with the help of a Chinese shipyard, with the cruise ship’s maiden voyage from England to North America scheduled in late 2016.
