Let's Make a Deal Approach to Panama Canal Treaty
The Wall Street Journal reports that even if the Senate rejects the treaty, a heavy bill will follow as the administration uses favors to win over wavering lawmakers. Promises include a $2.3 billion farm bill for Senator Talmadge and a $250 million copper stockpile purchase for Senator DeConcini, with other concessions offered to reluctant senators. Public worry centers on higher taxes and inflation to fund these enticements, while criticisms note it as a dangerous political bargaining tactic.
