Cuba will become the LARGEST resort island in ALL of the Carribbean. BIGGER THAN LAS VEGAS, BIGGER THAN THE BAHAMAS, BIGGER THAN RIO DE JANERO..... Obviously you don't know anything about the history of Cuba. During the reign (is that the right word?) of Fulgencio Bautista, who was the USA-approved dictator, Cuba was one big playground for rich gringos. Havana had huge casinos, and every well bred family from the du Ponts to the Rockefellers to the Vanderbilts had a coastal mansion. When Castro and Guevara marched out of the hills and overthrew Bautista, the locals supported him because they wanted to toss out the Yanquis. From then on American politicians and their rich patrons (see above) have had it in for Cuba. Why doesn't the embargo end, long after the end of Communism as a viable political threat? Because the Rockefellers et al are still ****ed at having their villas confiscated 45 years ago. Cuba will become the resort centerpiece for all of the Western Hemisphere, and anyone who gets in now with an investment will be a multi-millionaire in VERY short order. It is evern rumored that Casino mogul Donald Trump has 2 Billion in investment capital waiting for the re-opening of Cuba as a democracy and resort destination. In 5 Years he will TRIPLE that investment.....just watch..... *** you read it here first **** |

you will see Cuba revert back
to a Democratic Free State ??? Revert back? When was it ever a "Democratic Free State" in the past? Batista, e.g., was a dictator. And, under him, there were only two classes of people then, too. If it weren't for the US boycott, Cuba would be in great shape today. But Castro broke up the playground for the rich. Naughty, naughty. Bill, K5BY |

Naughty, naughty. Bill, K5BY I dunno. I think Cuba would still be a mess, thanks to Fidel. Regardless of the US embargo, Cuba still has other trading partners. It just doesn't have much to trade with. Frank Dresser |

Sugar and, I believe, aluminum. If I recall correctly, the latter is controlled by a French outfit, which has a lot of mining interests around the world. Oh, and a few people who also lost out when Batista was run out. Some call these people dissidents. G In exchange, Castro gets some peace. Bill, K5BY |
