Default The commentary may be deliciously short of retoric, but

I think it does skew some of the facts about the labor issue and about the "violence" and crime in the streets...Or, am I wrong??

Do the Fre Zone industries really "fiercely exploit" the labor market? Is there, in fact, an overwhelming wave of crime in the cities coupled with the violence inferred??

Since the commentary comes from a nation such as Cuba, with it's controlled media, and it's dictatorial system, I seriously question the full accuracy of such a report.

Yes, I know, one might expect such comments from a dyed-in-the-wool Capitalist such as myself, but my eyes aren't blind to the underlying inferences of the commentary. They wish to cast doubt on the government system of the DR because they foster one which is diametrically opposed.

The commentary is very well presented, I will give them credit forathat. It has just enough factual information to lend credence to the commentary, but those fact are obviously skewed, if you read between he lines.
