Re: [Marxism] MSNBC: Why Cuba's New Castro is loosening up



Quotation from the article:

"All retail is run by the
government and averages a 240 percent markup as legislated by Cuban
law."

Walter, is this true? If it is I don't think that 'gouging' would be
too harsh a term to refer to the markup. I can see 50% or at most
100%, but 240%? That's just bad business.
