21st Century Cuban Communism

The Cuban Communist Party Central Committee Fifth Plenum just met over the course of two days. They focused on the "updating of Cuba's economic and social model." Some highlights of 21st century communism:

--need to accelerate the "self-employment policy" and create a training process of over half a million self-employed workers.

--need to get people to pay their taxes and foster a culture where that is expected.

--get people to solve problems rather than waiting for the government to do so.

--reform the constitution and use other countries as a model.

Market reform is slow, even glacial, but it is happening.
