Golf’s Right of Return

This story in the WSJ about the Cuban government reintroducing golf to Cuba after Castro had the game effectively banned in the isolated country made me think about right of return rights. The Cuban dictatorship is guilty of stealing untold amount of property over it’s reign, do you think human rights activists around the world will clamor for right of return rights as a means of reconciling the many wrongs of Castro? I’m not holding my breath.

On a related note, Zimbabwe’s head thug Mugabe just announced that he wishes to extend his 28 year track record of decline and desperation for another term. I guess 100,000% and 80% unemployment aren’t enough for him.

“These guys don’t even think in Cuban,” Mr. Castro said in a 1960 speech, mocking members of the Havana Biltmore Yacht & Country Club. He confiscated the manicured grounds and turned them into a workers’ resort.
