As investigative historian A.E. Samaan wrote, “The only population Communism has ever successfully fed is the shark population swimming the Florida Straits.” With protests in Cuba over the repressive regime and inevitable shortages of goods, all eyes are cast south wondering whether the last 60 years of suffering is at an end for the U.S neighbor.

Welcome to Liberty Nation Radio heard coast to coast on the Radio America Network. I’m your host Mark Angelides and on this week’s edition, we’ll be examing why the role of socialist and communist governments face a Sisyphean task – always having to double down, and keep pushing that rock as the inherent problems with such systems entail their very downfall.
