Throwing in the towel. http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/americas/09/13/cuba.economy/index.html?section=money_topstories
in an unrelated piece of news from the back page: "Obama to announce creation of 1 million government jobs"
the US has 30x the population of cuba. the equivalent number to be laid off would be 15million federal and state and city workers. that would make the US captalist again.it will never happen unfortunately.
Wow...500,000 employees...cuba is going to save about 10 million dollars per month! Oh wait...Cubans get their monthly $20 checks whether they work or not, dont they?
My sincerest hope for the future of human civilization, is that statism becomes exctinct with the passing of the baby boomer generation.
