There were more homeless on the streets last night in New York because Bloomberg closed down another shelter, maybe they would be interested.
Obviously the misery in Cuba is in large part due to the U.S. trade restrictions we refuse to ease up on because Castro never gave in and said he was sorry about hiding the missles a generation ago. Is it easier to seperate church and state when you decide to keep your choke hold on other countries and deny food and medicine to millions of people? If trade sanctions were placed against the state of Florida, you better believe people would be jumping on boats out of Florida to the Carolinas and Alabama in no time.
Isn't it ironic that Castro would give anything for the US to actually be the capitalist, free market economic system that people seem to believe in so strongly? He would become the next Ayn Rand!
