From what I understand, a bunch of Cuban-Americans will go back to Cuba to reclaim land stolen from them by Castro. Cuban-Americans in S.FL have been salivating at the thought.

There are many, many very wealthy Cuban Americans who fully intend to "capitalize" on the death of a communist Cuba. I wonder how they will be accepted by the Cubans...

Just as there were many very wealthy ex-patriot Russian capitalists from all over the World who flocked to the new 'open' Russian market. Many of those entrepreneurs were lucky to get out of Russia alive. Smart money says Cuban Americans analyze what happened to the Russian entrepreneurs. It will come, but it will come slow. My father used to tell certain people that the 'south will rise again one day'. I always thought it was just a favorite sales pitch of his. It seemed like he was talking strictly economically. In current times it seems to me that perhaps the main problem has been those huge Hurricanes that show up every now and then.
