Venezuela will support them until the recession is over and tourism surges again. While Castro is alive, he's not about to undo the revolution. Afterwards it's anyone's guess.

Cubans will have to make do with less, top communists suggested, as they insisted the armed forces are strong enough to deal with any unrest.

This made me laugh, even as I pity the people living there. Of course the latest news out of Venezuela has that country headed for the dark ages as well. What with Dictator-for-life Chavez shutting down any alternate news media, and it becoming illegal to voice dissent.

The state controls well over 90% of the economy and pays an average monthly salary of $20 to the 85% of Cubans who work for it.

The U.S. after eight years of Obama.
