Answer 10

The Panama Canal was expected to bring great economic benefits to the people of Panama. Instead, the United States received most of the benefits. This was a deliberate act on the part of the U.S. The U.S. didn't allow Panamanian businesses to sell goods or services in the Canal Zone, it avoided the employment of Panamanian workers, and it used its military leverage to force Panama into accepting a low payment for the Canal territory. Key concepts include:

The Panama Canal's greatest benefit was its effect on transportation between the east and west coasts of the U.S.
The main benefit for Panama of canal construction was the introduction of new healthcare technologies.
Developing countries should be wary of large infrastructure projects such as today's pipeline and land bridge projects.
