The Deal


The Deal

Hola Cubanos! This message goes out initially to you Cubans with whom Raul has been stupid enough to provide computers then only pays you fifty cents a day. You are my communication network to the other Cubans so please distribute this message for broad dissemination. There is no sense mentioning the raw deal that is your life. What is important is that you know what your alternative is so you can make a rational choice. The choice has always been yours to make - but you all must make the choice simultaneously and that was not possible until now with these new communication methods available to coordinate our efforts for a better future. Here is what we offer:

Primarily, we offer Cuban sovereignty. The vast majority of Cuban exiles do not work with the US government because their interests do not mesh with our interests short of ridding the island of Fidel, Raul and their cronies. We will never tolerate anything but Cuban control of Cuba. However that does not mean we will ever tolerate control of Cuba by any individual Cuban like Raul Castro. Cuban national decisions will be made by all voting age Cubans, neighborhood decisions agreed upon by you and your neighbors, but individual choices that harm no one else left up to the individual to make. Next, as soon as Cuba is rid of the criminal enterprise running the nation into the ground it will then be safe and wise to bring cash into Cuba. We have literally millions upon millions of dollars waiting to flood into Cuba to instantly relieve the stark condition in which you live. Your family members here will come to Cuba in a massive wave of hundreds of thousands of people, each bringing family members vital supplies like medicine and clothing. We know your residences are in bad shape but to correct this, first we must give you a deed of ownership to your property. Only then will it make sense for you to improve your new investment. And to accomplish that improvement, building supplies will be arriving by the boatload with everything from plywood to shingles and nails. Finally, we will implement a free market economic plan that will exempt income and housing from being taxed. To generate revenue for the Cuban treasury a land location value tax will be levied based upon only the location value and not the improvements to the land. Therefore, the highest taxed land will be the central business districts and the lowest would be the residential areas. The farther out from the town center the lower the tax until it drops to zero in the agricultural areas. This will cause capital investment to surge into Cuba and that will create more than enough jobs for Cubans. With high paying jobs, ownership of your residences and little or no tax you will have more than enough wealth to rebuild you homes and your lives. Finally, you will have thousands of Cuban exile family member and friend consultants who know about all of the modern systems of technology that you have been banned from having in Cuba. We will show you how to use these revolutionary devices to make Cuba an efficient economic dynamo! Why? It is because you are our friends and our family. For too long Castro has been able to define us with lies to scare us apart. Now we can tell you what is in our heart directly. We have the best interests of Cuba in our hearts and you have my word on that amigos!

So here is what you all must do and in fact are already well on the way to accomplishing. Stop all work especially in the tourist hotels. Cuba should be self service for tourists until you all are free to use the hotels and beaches instead of being treated like stray dogs and shooed away constantly. Call in sick to work. The block spy who is a little tyrant abusing the neighbors should have his house burned to the ground. The police who abuse Cubans, especially out of racist hatred, should feel the sting of the rock or find their car brake lines cut. In short, figure out ways to cost the regime money while not providing them money from your labor output.

Thank you so much my dear. We're just giving the Cuban people a better idea of the target they should be aiming for.
