But...but....(gasping, mouth agape,) this can't be! Socialism always work damnit!

Seriously, the U.S. should buy Cuba for $5 billion, let Castro and his cronies be exiled anywhere in the world except the U.S. and its territories, and open the island up to American investors and let good old-fashioned American know-how work its magic.

What are their "massive thermoelectrical plants"?

It's a phrase invented by the AP to make decrepit, communist technology sound about a million times better than it really is.

Communist paradise. How many "people's windmills" will it take to replace a mega thermoelectric power plant (whatever that may be in Castro-speak)?

gradually replacing five massive thermoelectric plants

I guess all the big, mutant-size beavers died.

I wonder how their giant hamster program is progressing?
