Lesson learned: Castro repudiates state-run economy? (Updated)

Jeffrey Goldberg, a writer for the Atlantic Monthly magazine, wrote in a blog that he asked Castro, 84, if Cuba's model -- Soviet-style communism -- was still worth exporting to other countries and he replied, "The Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore."

It's getting harder and harder to find a decent communist.  Not counting university professors in the United States.


Update:

Not surprisingly, Castro says he didn't say that.  He was "misinterpreted."
