After Freedom — Part 5: The Habits That Remain

What No Projection Can Calculate

The Last Wire

We can talk about infrastructure.

We can talk about Foreign investment.

We can talk about modernization.

None of that matters if the people are not ready to sustain it.

Part Five closes the series with a blunt question: After six decades of State control, are the habits of initiative, discipline and responsibility still intact? 

Freedom is not self-executing. It survives only if citizens choose to carry it.

This final chapter is about culture, accountability and the long game of national revival... after freedom.

“Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place." - Frederic Bastiat

This part is the best of the series, you question whether the culture of Cuba has survived the corruption and misrule of the time spent under the Castros.  I can't begin to answer that...I've lived my whole life in the US.  I hope folks in Cuba do better than the Soviet Union/Russian Federation, where corruption moved quickly to fill the vacuum created by the collapse of the Soviet.

I am hoping for the best!
I don’t owe tolerance to people who disagree with my existence.
I will NOT comply.
