“New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell is taking an unannounced trip to Cuba on official business, but her office is releasing few details about the trip, including its cost. …The purpose of the trip is to “see firsthand how (Cuba’s) history has produced unique opportunities and challenges in the areas of economic development, trade, health care, education and other quality of life issues,” press secretary LaTonya Norton said in a written statement responding to questions about the trip…Cantrell was also to visit the Latin American School of Medicine on Thursday, according to the preliminary itinerary. On Friday, she would visit the Literacy Museum, which celebrates Cuba’s status as having the second-highest literacy rate in the world.”
“Hey guys, Cantrell says she’s gonna learn about economic development and quality-of-life in Cuba…”
“The rulers of one place drove out all productive residents with punitive socialist policies that converted a once charming and prosperous place into a huge slum except for a few tourism enclaves. The other place is named Cuba.”
Lest anyone forget: La Toya Cantrell’s gracious hosts converted a nation with a higher per capita income than half of Europe, the lowest inflation rate in the Western hemisphere, a larger middle class than Switzerland, a huge influx of immigrants, and workers who enjoyed the 8th highest industrial wages in the world into one that repels Haitians….and in the process jailed and tortured the most and longest-suffering BLACK political prisoners in the modern history of the Western Hemisphere….Le RRRONCA!!!
Wait, is this the former LaToya Jackson? Might as well be.
