"It would be a betrayal to my conscience to accept a responsibility requiring more mobility and dedication than I am physically able to offer,". So Fidel Castro stepped down from power today, and not a whole lots of people care. No riots, no parades... I think everyone knows this has nothing to do with a regime change, just a new Castro to continue the old and ailing Castro's plans. I presume the powers that be in Cuba are going to stage an election, but don't go holding your breath. I doubt any of us will ever live to see democracy take a vacation in Cuba. Say hello to my little friend... and Fidels little brother, the next go to guy for Cuba.
Personally I like Fidel Castro...of course he is controversial, but Cubans are better off than any other people in a Carribbean country imo, they have universal healthcare, education, etc. Looking at other countries like Haiti...
ReplyDeleteIts true, a friend of mine is doing mission work in Haiti and says it unbelievable how these people live. i still believe a democratic government would work better though
ReplyDeleteAND, look what your comparing Cuba too, not to hard to be in better shape then alot of those countries
ReplyDeleteTrue say...again, there are controversial things about Fidel. There is some democracy in Cuba, like the workforce elections. Chavez is imitating the democratized workforce in Venezuala. What I mean, overall, though is that if it weren't for Fidel Cuba would be like Haiti more or less. I fear that American corporations would divide up the land for their own use, the people would be wage-slaves and would have no sovreignty...
ReplyDeletebesides, did Fidel try the Riddler's Underwater Puzzle?
ReplyDeleteyes, i believe it blew up,
ReplyDeleteUnder Water OAC anyone?
