As long as they keep it safely locked and only a small number of responsible people from the company could use it... Keep it.

Changing the future/past could cause a domino of events. Personally I would rather live in a world where I knew the present, no matter how bad or good, than reap the consequences of the unknown.

Perhaps it will be invented.. But they are smart.. Kept it under wraps.. Started early on with plans to take over the world.. Perhaps they're referred to as the illuminati..
Perhaps..

Without some defeater, we are rational to trust our perception of things coming into and going out of existence and of the changing state of the universe. There is material continuity in the universe. It's not like you can just change back like it is a slideshow presentation.

I disagree. Traveling to different universes currently in a state like our past would be possible, but that would not be real time travel. Real time travel would require that the past and future "currently" exist, instead of just being previous and upcoming states of the universe.

There are so many theories about that who knows what would happen. I prefer the "infinite universe" theory that says that a second universe will be made from an action. It wouldn't affect us at all, only that universe.

Thats very true. But still over money driven vs power driven I find power driven to be a much more dangerous motive.

I was thinking along the lines of whether or not stuff could come back with whoever went (ex. Dinosaurs, diseases). Because if so, maybe that's not the best idea unless we want some sort of freak dinosaur apocalypse or second bubonic plague..... ;-p

No!!! All governments since the beginning of time have thought that way, and look what happened, nobody ever invented one, or if they did it was snatched by government and destroyed, and nobody ever found out. Now isn't that sad? ):

Outlaw alcohol and only organized crime will have it. Oh wait, they tried that strategy in the 1930's. That didn't work either. Obama wasn't even born yet. Get my point?

Outlaw pirated music and only felony copyright pirates will have it. Oh, wait, my next door neighbor has it, my dentist has it, a whole bunch of lawyers I know have it, my mom has it. Wasn't George Dubya president when the RIIA got busy suing bunch of grandmothers? 'Guess that strategy sucked huh?

Yeah it should be outlawed! Whoever owns it might try it and that will create some type of paradox. Not even worth the risk of leaving the fate of mankind to one person. Especially when nothing even remotely similar to going back in time has been done before.

Considering the infinite number of parallel universes, all possibilities have, are, or will be happening anyway. What we choose would be another skew of the timeline. It wouldn't be "us" in the past that the time machine could visit.
