All these wet nurse liberals who try to Gruberize the U.S. voters into believing U.S. businesses are going to be able to "open up new markets" in Cuba .... are delusional .... The only ones they fool are themselves and their associate "wet nurse liberals.'
The only way Cubans can buy anything "U.S. made" is with subsidies, and the only way the Cuban government can buy anything from the U.S. is long term financing.
Has anyone figured out why pussy only costs 5% of what it costs in U.S.?
How many remember the "sweet" deal made by the Transporation Secretary in Mexico with the World Bank (backed by U.S. taxpayer money) for construction of toll roads in Mexico? He insisted the contract be in pesos!
After it was funded, the Mexican government floated the peso ... which hit the shitter almost overnight. Borrow at 12.5 to 1 and pay it back at 500 to 1.
Our current "world leader" has a sorry ass track record in investments.
Before the dust settles on this one (and this thread) it will be Bush's fault.
The one thing IMO Carter did right was shit can the Texaco deal with Pemex. The old saying: "When he lie down with dogs you get up with fleas," fits here too.
You invest at your own risk in Latin America, not the taxpayers' risk, because that is not "your risk" that is someone else losing the money and having to replace it.
