I'm sure Carter will screw this up too

Nothing really to add to this, I just thought it was really interesting.

Nicaragua is building it's own canal.

Here's why.

Opened in 1914, the Panama Canal cannot accommodate vessels that are more than 106 feet wide and 965 feet long. Panamanians will go to the polls on Oct. 22 on a referendum to expand their country's own facilities. The proposed $5.25 billion project would allow vessels with double the tonnage to use the 50-mile-long waterway.
