Freedom for capital

In his 1960 speech, #Kennedy complained that #Castro had “confiscated over a billion dollars’ worth of American property” - a nod to the financial motives behind the vilification of the man who had overthrown the oppressive, corporate-friendly dictatorship of US pal, Fulgencio #Batista.
Of course, it wouldn’t look so good were the US government to acknowledge that its preponderant concern in #Cuba is freedom for US capital. So a deceitful euphemism is deployed: What the US cares about in Cuba, we are told time and again, is “freedom for the Cuban people”.
