What you wrote doesn't make any sense, it's just uninformed speculation and wishful thinking. The Castro brothers are precisely the ones leading the reforms in Cuba.
As to Russia and China, I fail to see the correlation between Internet access and change of government. The Russian government is in a Medieval conservative rampage, with little opposition. And the Chinese regime enjoys widespread support among the population.
I have no need to steal land or patronize sex workers, Captain Straw Man.
I don't support the embargo, but every democratic country has the option to choose who it does business with.
That doesn't give you the right to bully other countries and private companies that want to do business with Cuba.
Before the Internet, it was something else. The Cuban regime has been "on the brink of collapse" since I can remember.
It has survived the fall of the Soviet Union, why do you think it won't survive the Internet?
The problem comes in incentives in the form of subsidies to keep people at the WalMart level.
So, now the incentives are to blame? You are seeing it upside down. If people that will never be able to rise above Walmart level could make a living wage, those subsidies would not be needed.
That's the problem with the EU: the member states have far too much power
I'm Portuguese. If the EU had any more power, I'd be in a chain gang, slaving for Germany.
If you were in Cuba that means you weren't in the US. It would be great if you kept it that way.
I guess that's the best example on how the US are so very fucking democratic and free!
The current regime would last maybe 8 years after that.
You've been peddling this same bullshit since 59.
Cuba has a better standard of living than most Latin American counties. And all this despite the stupid, illegal and outrageous US blockade that turns every little thing Cuba wants to do in a painful ordeal.
You just feel butt-hurt for not having Cuba at your disposal to use as cheap farming ground and brothel.
Allowing Internet connectivity reduces the centralized control that a totalitarian Communist system requires in order to protect the leaders and the system itself from the inconvenience of reality.
It hasn't reduced the protection of our corrupt oligarchy here in the Capitalist world. Quite the opposite, gave them one more tool to spy and control us.
Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. Second marriage is the triumph of hope over experience.
