Anyone see that the CIA/USAID/OTI started a new op in Cuba & Miami?

1. Mo' money, mo' money, mo' money! Hot damn!

Don't forget, lotsa cashmere sweaters, and the finest leather jackets went along with those earlier sweet deal gifts, and wasn't there crab meat, too? Yes, indeed. Why, after all, not? The U.S. taxpayers are paying for it, albeit unknowingly.

I had to take a quick look at their "about" page. Well, what would you expect, anyway? That's right:

2. Don't forget the Russian caviar.

Yes, "free market solutions" is what Cuba needs.
The CIA Wavestation ... er ... Casa Bacardi institute at UofM is working on the "free market solutions" Paul Bremer-like 100 laws for the Cuban Transition Project, funded by Bacardi Corporation, Freedom House, USAID, NED, IRI, OTI, for the corporocratic takeover of Cuba.

I'm sure Cubans in Cuba will want this. NOT.
But, does Wall Street's corporocratic 1% care what the vast majority of Cubans in Cuba have to say? Nope.
