Somehow, the island of Cuba is starting to get 70-some channels of American television. The Cuban government is saying that it's a U.S. plot to overthrow Castro.

The citizenry is staying up all night watching game shows and such and are enthralled that you can win $1,000 for answering easy questions, round-the-clock weather, and "you can get pizza delivered right to your house!" They like seeing all the "beautiful things, like pretty houses and fancy cars."

It's a two-sided coin, I suppose. On one hand, a disgruntled populace will start realizing what they're not getting from their own government as far as opportunities go.

On the other, well, let's just say that we'd hate for them to come here thinking that you get to pick your wife from 25 really cute girls staying at your mansion for a few months.
