Castro Cuba becoming more democratic in economic policy, as U.S President Obama becomes more reliant on the socialist agenda

In a recent interview Fidel Castro Says Cuba's communist economic model doesn't work, and he said the state controls well over 90 percent of the economy, paying workers salaries of about $20 a month in return for free health care and education, and nearly free transportation and housing. At least a portion of every citizen's food needs are sold to them through ration books at heavily subsidized prices. He is now warning Cubans that they need to start working harder and expecting less from the government. Wow, only if President Obama could follow the same foot steps as the communist leader that less government is better.

On Israel he didn’t side step or bow down to the Iranain gov’t but said;

The Iranian government should understand the consequences of theological anti-Semitism. "This went on for maybe two thousand years," he said. "I don't think anyone has been slandered more than the Jews. I would say much more than the Muslims. They have been slandered much more than the Muslims because they are blamed and slandered for everything. No one blames the Muslims for anything." The Iranian government should understand that the Jews "were expelled from their land, persecuted and mistreated all over the world, as the ones who killed God. In my judgment here's what happened to them: Reverse selection. What's reverse selection? Over 2,000 years they were subjected to terrible persecution. One might have assumed that they would have disappeared; I think their culture and religion kept them together as a nation." He continued: "The Jews have lived an existence that is much harder than ours. There is nothing that compares to the Holocaust."

Only if our own President could man up like Castro has.
