And the Cubans! They're sitting on a fortune of '57 Chevys.

Laugh on Cisco :-)

Cubans KNOW how much those old cars are worth when Cuba finally opens up. They actually brick old cars into the building when they stop running. They don't have much, but they slather on the coconut oil to protect paint.

Your dream '57 Nomad may be sitting there somewhere with a LADA 4 cylinder engine that's now running on three cylinders.

The marines are gone.

We had 3 different groups of Chinese in today. When we got home from the beach, there was a rental in front of the store with a China Delegation sticker on the window. One group bought spy novels in English. Another bought 2 books about Baja. The others didnt buy anything....oh well

I guess we could learn something from Mexico. Next time we host a G-20 summit and the malcontents, paid protesters, and party people looking to have a good time decide to protest violently, we just load them in a bus and haul them 200 miles away and let them "Do Their Thing".
I think the La Paz demonstration is a gas and probably had a real major impact (on something). :o

The recent La Paz events have been peaceful, positive and well coordinated to promote basic civil society goals, schools, healthy food, transparency in government, improved projects that benefit citizens. The movement has had many names and directions, one of which is yo soy #132. This peaceful activism has been occurring for many years now, many of the people involved are mothers and school teachers.

At other political events around the world, much of the clashes of malcontents have been attributed to identifiable agent provocateurs, black bloc and occupy some of which are largely soros funded for political division to discredit citizen activism, and cause violent revolution as impetuous for world government as you have observed.

Consider the concerns average people care about versus the quite different goals of central banking cartels and world government.
