The US Navy Has Paid $111,000,000 Just to Park Nuclear Aircraft Carrier USS Enterprise While It Waits to Be Taken Apart

Headline from 19FortyFive

The Enterprise has been waiting since 2012. Of the total dismantlement bill, $111 million covers nothing but long-term pier-side storage during that wait - money spent on a ship going nowhere. The scrapping contract itself is $418.
