This is one very poor country.

Just like it could have used some socialism in the 1950's, it can now use some capitalism.

There's an optimum balance there that the Caribbean and many parts of the world struggle to find . . . . and people suffer as a result.

Still, the people with the guns are still in charge and the people with the guns are probably going to stay in charge.

The brother, however, seems more likely than Fidel to ease up on the long ago disgraced tenets of communism that have rendered this place one of the poorest around.

The people at the top won't change but you're likely to see a push towards capitalism.
