Still not getting it are you?
I'll make this exceedingly simple for you.
Sandokan argued Cuba's sugar problem = why Cuba's government is bad
Does that make sense in the context of sugar economics? You tell me.
Tell me, what do you think Cuba should have done to fix its sugar industry in the face of overwhelming Brazilian domination of the world sugar market?
Brazilian domination of the world sugar market also affected Texas. Imperial Sugar used to be headquarterd in Sugar Land, Texas, just outside of Houston. A few years ago, the last sugar processing plant there was closed down, due to unprofitability because of the price of sugar. So, if I read Sandokan's logic correctly, then the closing of sugar plants in Texas is a condemnation of the American system of government. :mrgreen:
