Cuba-China Co. to make appliances

Terence, good call on Obama. It’s becoming evident that he is just a more intelligent Geo. W. Bush in black-face. He is feeding our troops (and troops from other countries) into the Afghanistan meat-grinder, while keeping the Iraq meat-grinder going. He caved in to the private health insurance corporations and craw-fished on single-payer healthcare (and his stupid “public option” will almost certainly go down the drain). He handed the financial bourgeoisie a multi-trillion dollar bailout. His main value seems to be that we in the US don’t have to be so embarassed by an evil moron at the US helm.
Also, he has a beautiful, good-hearted wife and darling kids. ha ha
Seriously, though, we’ve got to stop speaking of the USA as though it were one homogeneous monster. There are plenty of us in the US who desire an end to monopoly capitalist imperialism. We are trying against terrific odds to get that done.
Good luck for a socialist Cooperative Republic in the UK.
As I always state when I comment, I am a so called neutral ( being British ).
I hope the venture is a success, particularly with China.
It has got to the point where I openly tell friends and family to check where anything and everything is manufactured and if it’s from the US of A, put it back on the shelf.
I have little sympathy for North America and they are big enough to trade internally.
In Britain, we were sickened and still are because of the way they fund Countries or causes to their advantage.
Our media is finally admitting that the US of A is feeling threatened by the Chinese economy.
My gut feeling is that this childish blockade of trade from the US will backfire on them. They are out of step with the UN and I see no reason why Obama will alter what his predecessors did.
