    Americans actually pay 2000$ for the Guantanamo bay yearly as a lease. This of course wouldn't get you an apartment even in parts of what used to be second world in the infamous commie blocks. The lease of course was negotiated when that was dollars of gold, though I still think it wasn't that much. After the revolution one cheque was cashed by Castro, because he didn't know what it was, and the rest are somewhere in a drawer, so Cubans essentially get nothing and want the land returned. The point I am trying to make is that I have seen quite a bit of disinformation on the local internet ,especially on the local neoliberal rag newspaper, that Americans are actually paying an arm and the leg for the lease and Cuba doesn't even really want Guantanamo back. Has anyone noticed something similar?
