OK, Didn,t somebody recently post some real long documents on the Cuban 
Trade Unions. All of the Cuban reforms after taking power was a process 
involving millions of people. Or do you think they were served to them by 
Fidel. True the reason we say that Cuba is a "deformed" workers state 
because it was not a workers revolution. But a guerrilla army that led the 
assault. But the Nationalisations and block committees and health care etc. 
involved millions of people. It also destroyed the capitalist class in Cuba 
and went into a transitional type state. Although in a bureaucratic manner..
