Another typical Stain plow: caught in one lie, spew another
one. Readers will note that Stain considers it a "lie" to
refer to Cuban society by a factually-accurate term,
preferring instead to insist upon Stalinist Newspeak. Most
remarkably, Stain is even more dishonest than Fidel:
From an interview with Castro by Mexican capitalists
(adapted from _Proceso_, a Mexican left-wing weekly,
December 4 [1988]; noted and translated by Sam Farber):
Q: "What guarantees do you have that Cuba will not
expropriate our businesses?"
A: "Well, what guarantees did you have in Mexico to prevent
the expropriation of oil, and what guarantees did you have
to prevent the expropriation of the banks?
"The guarantee that Cuba offers is that it is a strong
country with a strong government. We are interested in the
development of industry and tourism. We will open up and
become 50% partners. We will do things well. We will not
charge taxes for profits. Besides, you'll have a simpler and
more attractive tax system than the Mexican."
Q: "Why don't you allow Cubans to invest in their own country?"
A: "Well, that would mean changing the system. We are
capitalists, but state capitalists. We are not private
capitalists. For now, we are not interested in changing the
system, but we do want you to come and invest . . ."
