In Jessica Hagy's wonderful Blog called Indexed, she makes an eloquent depiction of how a "banana republic" seems caught between the influences of communism and capitalism...
where she describes "A" as represented by Fidel Castro while "B" as the "Gap"...I'd like to fill in the "GAP"..."Crony Capitalism" and "Oligarchy" seems to fit the bill. (see preceding blogs)
P.S. We also don't have a shortage of "A" or "Castro" wannabees...I mean, here on this island. Just watch the local news headlines and you'll know what I mean.
