Expert's and historian's estimates vary wildly, partly because because of the problem that you have to relate prices to the standard and cost of living at the time to get a proper 'translation' to a true cost in today's US dollars. The minimal amount in today's dollars that is mentioned is around $ 4 billion, but some estimates run up to even $ 300 billion. Somewhere between 20 and 50 billion is probably a safe bet.
According to PBS, "However, Versailles' price tag ranges anywhere from two billion dollars (in 1994 USD) all the way up to a maximum cost of $299,520,000,000."

Louis tried but most of the first class were in denial and didn't want to lose their privileges He mainly tried to involve the first and second estate in paying tax because they didn't pay much before and some other problems he tried to solve by spending less on war. He wasn't strong enough to actually push through new laws that were so desperately necessary.
Nobody cares. Money is money you get it and spend it away its nothing but at the same time its everything.
Actually, he wasn't. The French had had Louis XIV and Louis XV as their monarchs before him and they spend horrendous amounts on state money. The French became quite angry about that even when Louis XV was still on the throne. By the time Louis XVI inherited the throne and became their monarch, there was no stopping an already smouldering revolution. Louis XVI might have been able to stop the revolution if he would have been tougher, if he would have taken a stand and make the people feel that he was their Monarch. Instead, he didn't do much, surrendered himself without a fight and told his guards never to use any violence Not even when a revolutionary man punched him in the face even before he was arrested. He said only to want the best for his "good people".
During the Seven Year's War France lost most of its overseas treasure to Great Britain. The resulting ecomnomic damage almost destroyed the monarchy. However, some of the economic was repaired in the 1760's by the minister, the duc de Choiseul. Because Louis XIV and Louis XV spend way to much money and left a huge state debt. Louis XVI inherited that as he accessed the throne (a debt of 400 million livres!) In 1788 the French government went bankrupt.
