New web site is well done!
The new web site is well done! Everyone at the Militant, especially the web administrator, along with all the paper's supporters, should be proud. Clear and attractive; useful and accessible; not to mention, nothing like it to help inform and organize working-class fighters. Can't wait to tell all those I know who already look to the Militant, as well as all future readers, about it.

Enlightening article
The special feature in the June 5 Militant, "Cuban workers discuss economic reforms," was enlightening and informative.

Raul Castro's mention of Lenin's emphasis on politics over administration bears further examination, especially within the context of how the Bolsheviks led the Soviet Union under the period of the New Economic Policy. I think it would be helpful if the Militant did an article looking into how the Bolsheviks handled that challenge, and how Soviet workers and farmers responded to their leadership during those years.

Also, it would be good to reprint relevant speeches of the Cuban leaders as they work their way through this challenge.
