| Haven't seen much commenting on Cuba lately... |
|
There have been several news stories lately, but I haven't seen anyone mention them.
- Cubans will be allowed to own cell phones in the future.
- Cubans will be allowed to own DVD players in the future.
- Cubans will be allowed to own computers in the future.
- Cubans will be allowed to stay in hotels in the future.
Every time the subject of Cuba has come up in the past, it has been raised as a model society because of the free education and health care.
I'm sorry, but to me, free education and health care without the freedom to enjoy my daily life sounds a lot like prison. I'm excited to see the changes that will happen in Cuba as her citizens are allowed more and more liberties under a changing government. They still have a long way to go, though.

| 1. Normalize relations. China is no worse, and Cuba is our neighbor. |
