Cuba's subsidized cigarettes going up in smoke

Cuba is phasing out its longstanding monthly allotments of subsidized cigarettes as President Raul Castro works to jump-start the island's sputtering economy.

As TrogloPundit at Right Wing News says:

Communism worked real good as long as a Big Mommy Russia was paying the bill. It might still be working real good, if Momma'd had somebody paying her bill, too. But she didn't, so she's buh-bye.

No more grilled-cheese sandwiches and free cable for you, Cuba. Time to get a job.

Agreed.
