Miss Independent, Vintage Americana 4th of July, cute, shirt

The last ones of a more than a few thousand were during the special period (early 90s through early 00s after grappling with the the Miss Independent, Vintage Americana 4th of July, cute, shirt consequences of the the Soviet dissolution). There have been small intermittent ones on various issues since 2003 or so.I’m honestly shocked that the items are actually making it through customs. When I did two years in the Peace corps in morocco, my family would send me stuff like peanut butter, books, candy, some small toiletries. Every time except one, at least half of the stuff was missing from the box, whomever cut the box open and what they want and then did a half ass job of retaping it. Couple times the box just never arrived.As an example, some medical supplies are made of plastics. Those plastics are not exempt, so Cuba can’t ship raw materials to make it’s own medical equipment. It has to ship the finished product, which is often inflated in price. And shipping to Cuba costs a lot of money, so many companies simply have no interest in dealing with the Cuban government, especially since at any point they could get fined by the US government. Even if Cuba wants to pay exorbitant prices, it’s less of a headache to just ignore them entirely.Are there valid reasons? Sure there are. But you’d be right to complain that those reasons are hypocritical and selectively applied when coming from the U.S. And you’d also be right to question the effectiveness and humanitarian impact of the embargo.Cuba isn’t exactly a bastion of political freedom, so there are valid reasons to pressure its government. And there are times when economic sanctions may be appropriate. But the wide-scale embargo imposed on Cuba is pretty obviously a Cold-War relic that America just lacks the political will to change (that’s my take, at any rate).

I’ve been to Cuba a few times. All over it in fact. I’ve also been all over Jamaica, its neighbouring capitalist island.From what I can gather the Miss Independent, Vintage Americana 4th of July, cute, shirt  patients has meant that more supplies and electricity has had to be diverted towards caring for the new large numbers of patients. This has caused more blackouts and reduced amount of food and medicine for non COVID and non critical people. Some people started to protest about the sudden loss of electricity and items, this then lead to counter protests too in support of the government’s decisions and handling of supplies, I think it’s something that’s being blown out of proportion by a lot of mainstream media, some were even tweeting pictures of protests in Egypt and implying it was of CubaYou’re probably joking, but nonetheless, we are distinct, not only on skin color, also in facial structure, hair and other, very perceptible, things.Also, the Caliphate used an extremely extractive, borderline slave system on Iberia, which drove most people north (Area which remained free), I would classify the relation to that of an extractive colony (More late 1800s Africa than settlement colonies like North America, Sout Africa and Australasia, they still settled considerably on the south), whose only purpose was to enrich the Arab elites, they didn’t leave any especially remarkable trace (Outside of linguistics) in the region except in their Capital, which was reconstructed after the liberation, and in the south, specially in Grenada and its surroundings which where the last holdouts during the Reconquista.I saw far more abject poverty in Jamaica, far more violence and the result of violence, shanty towns, people missing arms and legs, beggars etc etc etc.In capitalism there are winners and losers. Switching from a socialist to capitalist economic system isn’t a magic way to make the line go up. In fact just look at many of the ex Soviet bloc nations and their three decades of stagnation now they’re capitalist.
