Gee. This idea must have some legs.
I have SciFi from 35 years ago on my shelves that postulate this very concept.

I do not believe that it can be done with current technology & materials.

So we have black holes to throw tax payers money in, the reverse of that would be!!!!

It's best to leave some sci-fiction in the books.
