42. I guess they would mostly be friends of Batista, right?
I know life in Cuba isn't a bed of roses, but the majority chose Castro because under Batista only the crims did well, and Cuba was
the Mafia holiday camp. So I guess that most of the people who chose to leave would have been allied to the Batista regime in some way.

Presumably Bush is choosing to reinstate the Mafia as Cuba's rulers,
whether the people want that or not.
