6. Seems to me the Cuban regime is going to lose eventually

I don't know what an Alan gross is. But I think the Cuban dictatorship is bound to lose the battle to keep people from organizing to overthrow the regime. A communist party claiming it is the only political alternative loses legitimacy if it practices capitalism unless it can do like china, which is now a fascist nation. But the Cuban government lacks the ability to withstand the pressure of one million Cubans abroad constantly explaining to their poor relatives in Cuba how the new Cuban capitalist model exploits the working class. The masses will rise and a new revolution will destroy the ancient regime. They may even get to practice with their own guillotine.
