Chance coincidence or coordinated conspiracy? You decide.
Earlier tonight the WSJ had these two items, side by side:
1: “Cuba Layoffs Show Ideological Shift: Cuba will lay off more than half a million state workers and try to create hundreds of thousands of private-sector jobs, a dramatic attempt to shift its nearly bankrupt economy toward a more market-oriented system”
2. New Medicare Chief Pledges to Cut Costs
What are the odds that the two countries would announce the same reforms on the same day if they didn’t plan it that way?
Disclaimer: I haven’t read the articles that these items link to.
