That is just another government trick...to make it easier for them to spy on citizens. Actually, Raul probably read the study that concluded that cell phone usage is more dangerous than asbestos or cigarette smoking...that is one way to get rid of the opposition.

I think exposure to capitalism would totally undermine the government of Cuba. We should just lift our embargo completely. Give those poor Cubans a taste of what life COULD be, and the Communists would have to leave town.

Can you say Perestroika? No really, can you say it?
It looks like "Little Brother" is doing what Gorbachov did to keep his @ss on the throne. It did not work for Gorby and it won't work for CastroII I just wonder what will replace him.

Yes, unlike in the US, when wiretapping/spying on wired and cell phone users never happens . . .

Tom, there is no embargo. The embargo is an illusion. Every European country and every Asian country trades with Cuba. Even subsidiaries of American companies trade with Cuba. Do you know where the cell phones that they are planning to sell come from? South Korea. The only effect that lifting the embargo would have is to get rid of the "embargo" excuse. But the castro brothers, who are very inventive, will find other ways to blame the Yanquis for the shortcomings of their regime.

I was thinking of the embargo of the US against Cuba. Once there was free trade between the two countries, nobody would want anything to do with Communism.
I realize that the Cuban emigres in this country feel differently about this. This how it seems to me, though.

I just like to clarify the fact that there is no embargo.

Sorry, I prefer to lump everyone into monolithic categories in order to better facilitate my preconceived notions and prejudices . . . .
Ha ha ha. I know that. I was just generalizing based upon what I have heard and seen in the news, etc. I do understand the families who lost everything they owned when Castro nationalized their businesses have long memories and hope to one day have their property restored. I hope so, too. I have a feeling that the average Cuban would benefit from such a move, too.
