For first time in decades, Cuba's private sector outweighs state

>HAVANA, July 29 (Reuters) - Cuba's private sector is accounting for more retail sales by value on the Communist-run island than the state for the first time since the years following Fidel Castro's 1959 revolution, new government data shows.

>Preliminary figures from the National Statistics Office published last week indicate the "non-state" sector was responsible for 55% of retail sales of goods and services in 2024, up from 44% in 2023. The figures exclude public utilities.

It better be cooperatives

It's ober for Cuba

>Cuban economist Omar Everleny cautioned that those high prices boosted the value of the private sector, and that the retail data was not a reflection of overall volume.
>"Prices are often subsidized in the state sector and much higher in the private sector," he said. "(But) the state has little cash to import goods … so people have to turn to the private sector, which is more flexible."
Cuba better find a way to solved their private retail sector problem. Hopefully good ML In Cuba Can resist the liberalizers. This is sad news.

there's proletarian liberalization (gaige kaifang) and bourgeois liberalization (perestroika)

if this translates into direct benefits for the people like an actual reliable electricity grid then it should be welcomed. the Chinese have long asked for the necessary reforms to make their investments possible. This is preferable to the off-chance the Cuban communists get overthrown for unpopularity and the reforms happening anyway

I told you about nation-building socdems doug

it's castrover

It's just AES, ultraoid.

This is really sad, because Cuba and the DPRK are the only surviving Socialist States left, albeit with strong Revisionist tendencies (they are roughly equivalent to the Khrushchevite USSR before the Gorbachev “Reforms”, which was technically still in the Socialist Mode of Production due to being a Centrally Planned Socialist Economy, but which had a Revisionist Social Fascist/Social Imperialist Capitalist Roader leadership running the CPSU that was slowly destroying Socialism and paving the way for Gorbachev and Yeltsin to embrace Capitalism) but if Cuba goes full Dengist and starts having Stock exchanges, Private Companies, and Billionaires, then it really proves the Dialectical Materialist fact that any “Marxist-Leninist”, who rejects the Immortal Science of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the Highest Stage of Marxism, is a Revisionist Social Fascist/Social Imperialist Marcyite Campist Capitalist Roader, whether they realize it or not, and no matter how Progressive Cuba and the DPRK are, and the fact that they are both technically Socialist for now, their refusal to embrace Maoism will ultimately doom them to Capitalist restoration, 😂🤣🤢🤮!

What benefits? The Cuban government deliberately creates unemployment to force more and more people to work in the private sector.

laos, china, vietnam and belarus

Correction, the private retaik sector overtook the state run retail sector

>>2435362
Don't worry Iran still exists

It kind of feels like the 21st century is going to feel like a "Dark Century" or a "Lost Century" whatever sounds better. Im not to hopeful on China either. All their dedollarization talk is BS. They benefited the most from the currect IMF neoliberal export model

lmao, might as well throw russia in there

yes

Since Lukashenko came to power, Belarus has embarked on the road of market
socialism, in which privatization has been halted, and the dominant position of state-
owned economic components in the national economy has been established; a vertically
managed and efficient model of state governance has been implemented, the presidential
leadership has been strengthened, and social fairness and justice have been prioritized.
In addition, Belarus has kept good diplomatic relations with the CIS (Commonwealth
of Independence States) countries, China, and other countries through pluralistic and
multi-directional diplomacy. Market socialism has helped the economy of Belarus recover
from the decline immediately following the breakup of the USSR and develop rapidly.
The country’s economic foundation has been getting increasingly stable. A strong social
security system has been established, and social welfare covers the largest social groups,
which ensures employment and civil rights to the greatest extent, continuously improves
the living standards of the population, and thus avoids social division and ensures social
stability. Market socialism in Belarus is a special system of socialist market economy, its
theory and practice can teach important lessons to the current practice of socialism and
the reform of capitalist system

I know, but we all knew from day one this mumbo jumbo wouldn't fly.

>>2435413
lmao, you really believe that?

>>2435450
you're literally listing empty phrases. you need to think more instead of confusing that things that look the same have the social content behind them. dogmatist.
>>2435434
it's not a matter of belief but of objective, existing reality.

Belarus is not even run by a nominally Communist Party, and China, Vietnam, and Laos, all have Stock Exchanges, Private Companies, and Billionaires, and are run by Dengist/Khrushchevite Social Fascist Capitalist Roader Revisionist Parties that LARP as “Communist”, thus making them Dictatorships of the Bourgeoisie that have Private ownership of the Means of Production which characterizes the Capitalist Mode of Production, and can be called Capitalist States in accordance with the Dialectical Materialist analysis of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, the Highest Stage of Marxism, with the massive caveats that a Maoist faction taking over the CCP and purging the Dengists could place China back in the Socialist Mode of Production on the Shining Path to Communism without another Maoist PPW there, and you should still Critically support Social Democratic/State Capitalist Dengist China against U$ Imperialism, for the same reason you should Critically support the Left-Liberal U$ Democrats against the Crypto-Fascist Theocratic Christian Zionist Nationalist MAGAtard Republicans, because despite the fact that I am a staunch Maoist, I still recognize the Material reality that a Controlled Opposition is better then No Opposition, not because a Maoist like me genuinely supports these Bourgeois entities, but because they are “Lesser Evil” factions of the Global Capitalist-Imperialist System who De Facto prevent the “Greater Evil” factions of the Global Capitalist-Imperialist System from completely crushing the Workers and Oppressed Nations of the World before the World Maoist PPW can be successful when the inevitable World War III between the U$ and China escalates into a Global Nuclear War, thus creating a Global USSR (The SSRs and SFSRs of the future Global USSR are shown in the Map I posted, and I plan on posting an improved version of this Map by the end of this month, which will finally divide Sub-Saharan Africa into an appropriate number of SSRs based on its Ethno-Linguistic demographics, which I have been thoroughly researching over the last few months) that will place the Workers and Oppressed Nations of the World on the Shining Path to Communism, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️!
