I doubt that anyone would risk $20 billion in a country that teeters on the brink of anarchy as does Nicaragua.


Well, maybe the Democrats would.

How about a mile wide sea level canal along the border from San Diego to Brownsville?

I spent a little over a week there this year, and it sure didn't seem on the edge of anarchy to me.

My significant other was down there a few years back and he said that the country sermed on the verge of another breakdown...although he did run into some casino types who were opening up casinos in country.

from what I hear Nicaragua is doing impresssively with its exports and things are looking up...although they are far below the progress of other Central American nations...and they are saddled with the fashionista Ortega who is running for something I believe...yecch!
