The spin around the resumption of relations with Cuba is so instructive.
Obama is a traitor, Cuba surrendered due to the lack of patronage, they could no longer ignore the benefits of Goldman Sachs.
Ed Rocye is suddenly the champion of workers rights. He is saying the reason Cuba is so bad is because workers are not getting paid fairly. Is that not the ultimate irony of an America that has practised Distaster Capitalism for close to a century?
Next talking point to be destroyed is that Cuba has the worst human rights record in Latin America. No where to start here except to say Cubans are the best educated, poverty free people in Latin America.
Is Che Guverra a hero or a villain. It all depends upon who you ask, Ned Kelly comes to mind. I do not believe in flawless leadership. Thats beige disaster.
We are flawed beings and sheeple at heart. When someone is willing to grab the flag and wave it with real passion in a direction we should follow, I am not going to quibble about the grass on the lawn destruction.
We have Dick Cheney proudly declaring that America need torture to survive.
Then on the next breath Republicans will paint living wage protesters as terrorists.
Cuba is not a solution to the problems of Latin America. However Cuba compared to every peer in many benchmarks is an overwhelming success,
The argument is that Cuba prevents brilliant citizens from making a million dollars. That has worked out so well all over Latin America that one can not name a single city where citizens can venture out after dark, For example of the extravagance, most CEO in San Paulo commute to work in helicopters which take off and land with security presidential.
Che Guverra is a flawed character. Like a latin Jack Bauer he shot
himself to power. But I still love 24. History sifts the time from the man.
Che Guverra has been proven solid despite so many concentrated
sandblast attacks. Imagine if Bomber Harris or George Bush had all the K street funds suspended. Would they be pictured like El DUCE!
