Besches and classic cars. Their most valuable resources. The classic cars will go away quickly if the US allows it.

the world’s highest concentration of prostitutes, as women are forced to sell their bodies to live a better life and obtain precious hard currency.

That would be an EPIC FAIL as Fidel proudly boasted that a major accomplishment of his revolution would be that no Cuban woman would ever have to resort to prostituting herself again.

It will probably take
US
another 25 years before the damage caused by
The Obama Administration,
a thuggish, murderous, totalitarian communist clique can be fully reversed.

I recommend reading the chapter about Cuba in P.J. O’Rourke’s “Eat the Rich.”

hat is probably the one positive outcome of the fact that many Americans will indeed visit Cuba in the near future. Once US tourists begin to break their ankles or get food poisoning or appendicitis while on the island, this is one myth — a product of efficient propaganda — that will quickly disappear.

And the healthcare that the tourists will get will be a thousand times better than what the average Cuban will get.

Most of the more desirable classic cars of Cuba are already in Germany, Holland, and Italy.

The Commies confiscated them, forcing the owners to accept Russki Ladas (if they were very very lucky)as compensation. The big deal in Cuba now? Flying Pigeon bicycles from the CHICOMS, a unit so bad they make Huffy bikes look cool.

Several years ago at a conference in Canada I heard a Canadian left-wing academic rave about his vacations in Cuba. He found people who thought the system was wonderful—I don’t know if they were Communist true believers or Cubans afraid to say what they really thought even to a foreigner. I don’t know how well he spoke Spanish.

Have to believe there is still hope for people who can manage to maintain sixty year old automobiles that well.

Woman implies a physically matured body.

The bulk of the sex tourists who go to Cuba are buying a much younger product.

Why do you think Graham Spanier (who shielded Jerry Sandusky as Penn State president) was so keen to spend time there?

Oh thats a good one no doubt. But having worked with reporters (I was one) it’s close to home. And I promise you that finding what this guy claims is a rare event. Because most are doing a job for a paycheck and write what they are told to or are SJWs out to reshape the world in their vision.
