Obama Arrives in Cuba, Heralding New Era After Decades of Hostility
Discussion:
Outside the Beltway, Washington Post, Reuters, Daily Kos, New York Magazine, Associated Press and Washington Monthly
Editor's notes: To hear all the talk, this Cuban/Obama thing is as big a deal as was the Nixon/China 1972 visit. Folks actually are telling the Puppet Nation that Cuba will bring in a new age of fiscal prosperity. Good grief. All monies earned in Cuba by those working for American companies at minimum wage, will have their earnings confiscated by the Castro's and paid back to the worker at $20.00 a month. Currently the average earned income in Cuba, is $300 per year. Turns out that nothing will change for those people. Thank you very much, Barack Obama.
Economic boon for America ?? Another fantasy. Again, the Cuban people average $300 per year. There are 11 million of them . . . . . and nearly half of them are children.
The man cannot get anything done that is significant so he trumps up this Cuban compromise. And while he is at it, he will give away the land under GITMO. He can do this without Congressional approval. He cannot touch our naval base, but, the prison is sitting on land that can be returned by any president . . . . and I do not doubt that Obama has talked and is talking to the Brothers, during his time in Cuba. Mark my words.
