Trump is RIGHT about Regaining the Panama Canal

Never understood what this alt right is supposed to mean, or how it's obvious ridicule of the political right by lefties
has anything at all to do with reality. Does it have any kind of relation to the lefties calling Trump Hitler, or calling
Republicans et all white supremacists, or that we on the RIGHT are out to destroy our so-called democracy? Lets face
it, lefties and the demofart party are all but dead when it comes to having any kind of say in the glorious future of
America, as we all know now that their horrendous destruction of America these past 4 years has come to an end.

It's a buzzword. It's meaningless. I suppose it's an attempt at some kind of insult.

About 38,000 people died building or attempting to build the Canal and associated railway. Most of them were French living in America at the time (so American).

They were not French living in America.

The French made the first attempt at building the Panama Canal, and did a lot of the heavy lifting in doing so. They did not put as much effort into health, so lost a lot more people than the USA. Dying on a project that was later bought out by America does not make those French deaths Americans.

So in short, of the 28,000(not 38,000) people who died building the Panama Canal, 22,000 died before the USA was involved. Because the USA was not involved, the people who were involved would not be living in America.

So now you're complaining Americans killed fewer people than the French, and so that makes us worse???? lol you're so confused and addled that it's strange you weren't the Democratic candidate for President.

Everybody please ignore the fact that the French only completed 11 miles of the Canal; it is 50 miles long, and Americans were working under the very same conditions as the French were.

Please ignore these dumbass commies and their idiotic anti-American rubbish.

And since I never said any lie, you're failing miserably, and by merely being too stupid to look up basic facts, being content to babble anti-American bullshit.

The French lost almost 22,000 in 9 years, the Americans around 5,800 over 4 times the miles in 9 years.

The Americans made an interesting, and I believe correct strategic decision to prioritize health above actually getting things done. It was controversial at the time, and still is. Once they got the health problems under control, the actual work flowed better.

Getting the health under control involved obsessive public health, which today's Republicans would not have tolerated.

The other genius of the Americans was to not try a straight level cut through the isthmus. This meant there was no need to make a canal for much of the way.
