Cuba would do just fine if they would allow "The Donald" to come down and ramp-up the tourist industry.

Then it could be just like Atlantic City, astonshing wealth on one side of the street, crime ridden slums on the other, crackwhores everywhere.

I have a better idea;

Establish democracy first, capitalism second, then let the Cuban people create their own wealth.

Keep that pompous ass with the plastic hairdo in his penthouse.
