5 cents a gallon of gas and a spoonful of sugar
Nothing that you will read in the main outlets of the mainstream media, not at least on their front page.
This morning, the headline of that article (as featured in one of the multiple newsfeeds of AOL) added a question mark wondering how was it possible. I read the whole thing, but the answer was not there. Gas in Iraq is as low as a nickel a gallon thanks to the sacrifice of the Americans soldiers on the ground. I would like (Assistant) Professor Gregory T. Cushman to illuminate us with an explaination on why gas in the U.S. of A. is so expensive and why is it so cheap in Iraq. What's the deal that we are not stealing it, as pregoned by the liberal media? Wasn't it blood for oil one of their rallying battle cries, during election times? What's the deal with the Big Oil from Texas that is not stealing of that rich oil from Iraq? C'mon, professor, the facts and the figures show something else here... They show that America is the most generous country of this world!
Maybe the Ass(istant) professor have an explaination about the latest show of kagastrist inneficiency: the assassination of the Cuban sugar industry. Now it happens to be "a thing of the times of slavery"... Last time I checked, Cubans are treated (and fed) worse than the nineteenth century slaves. So the industry that created the Cuban nation was destroyed by kagastro to a mountain of ruins and rubble. And by the way, the rum and beer industry in Cuba was also destroyed by kagastro (and don't forget ernie "the butcher" guevara, his minister of industry) At this point, perhaps the professor want to show us the divine light of the incredible salary pocketed by a Cuban worker of one of those industries TODAY and who knows if he even dares to compare that to the figures of pre-kagasstro times. I pity his students!
An interesting turning point was the revolutionary plan that did away with more of the natural environment with deforestation plans to gain lands to cultivate whatever was in the mind of el maximo leader at any given time. This was done with mechanized military units, tanks to be precise. The stupid attempt at desecating the Cienaga de Zapata (a large swamp in Central Cuba) is another classic example. All of this drove kagasstro into a histerical megalomaniac mode and he declared that he would steer the productive forces of the sugar cane industry in the right direction to produce 10 million metric tonnes of sugar. The country was never to be the same after that, he said. He failed, rather miserabily, and the country was never the same. Professor, let Carlos Santana alone for a while, read some Carlos Alberto Montaner, Humberto Fontova, and if you want to read about sugar cane history, please read Moreno Fraginals, a contemporary author who really knew about the subject. Now go back to assist a real professor.
