That wonderful Cuban economy

Say Anything links to a listing of "hot new jobs" available in Cuba these days, thanks to the "largesse" of their government.  Now, apart from the interesting fact that one apparently needs a license to shine shoes in Cuba--I'd guess that shoeshine boy needs a similar license here in the United States, to be fair--notice how many of these "hot new jobs" involve caring for or driving draft animals, manual labor, and so on.

In other words, due to the "miracles" of socialism, Cuba is aspiring to become as productive as the civilized world was over a century ago.  Hopefully "Ragged Ricardo" is blessed to see the timely death of the Castro regime.
