Yes, Apparently it will be possible....but its not because its possible, thats its good to have. ( Just liek the Atom Bomb )

Now imagine  we build that elelevator and it crash ( could hapens for many reason such as : Fallen Satellite crash on it, Another country send a bomb/missile to destroy it. ) these are just 2  exemples out of so many. Then it would fall on our heads.....

I dont think it would be a good idea, aldo it is a nice idea.

Well, stuff usually costs more to build than destroy. Although terrorists or foreign attacks might be an issue, i doubt the 'elevator' will do any damage. The counterweight will be harmlessly flung out to space and no one should get hurt
