I find it interesting that on several accounts, they Statue of Liberty might never have been, be it due to storms or lack of funding. I agree that the image and meaning of the statue of liberty should be preserved, but not necessarily the entire piece. Not only is it far from a travel-able condition, but it is simply too large. Despite the gesture of goodwill that the statue was meant to be, from France to the U.S., why do you believe there is still some bad blood between the two of us?
