Breaking News: U.S. restores relations with Cuba

I just read the breaking news (Providence Journal, on-line, Dec. 17) that Cuban President Raul Castro welcomes renewed diplomatic relations with the United States.

I wonder why it was so right to ostracize revolutionary socialist Cuba for more than half a century but still recognize, for example, Pinochet's police state in Chile, after the CIA backed overthrow and assassination of the "Marxist" President Salvatore Allende?

Does the U.S. ruling class think it can quarantine an idea? Do they think SOCIALISM is so vile and unthinkable to ordinary Americans?

The black revolutionary Malcolm X once said in one of his fiery speeches: "Show me a capitalist and I'll show you a bloodsucker."

Will we ever have a democratic referendum on CAPITALISM here in the United States? What if the "tyranny of the majority" votes this oppressive economic system out?

Will the ACLU plead before the Supreme Court for the private property rights of our ONE PERCENT plutocracy? Think about it all you who embrace Logic & Reason – including the so vociferous New Atheists.
