????盡管對(duì)美國(guó)資本主義來(lái)說(shuō)仍然遙不可及，但最近幾年古巴已經(jīng)采取了一些措施來(lái)放松政府對(duì)經(jīng)濟(jì)的管制。其中一些措施值得關(guān)注。比如，古巴政府表示，將允許人們自由買賣二手車，購(gòu)買新車時(shí)也不必獲得批準(zhǔn)。改革正在緩慢進(jìn)行。對(duì)第一批吃螃蟹的人來(lái)說(shuō)，市場(chǎng)上的新車定價(jià)過(guò)高，幾乎沒(méi)有人買得起。但最近，古巴領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人——包括佩德拉薩——都表示他們正在變得開放起來(lái)。布魯金斯學(xué)會(huì)（Brookings Institution）的研究結(jié)果顯示，目前私營(yíng)行業(yè)雇員約占古巴勞動(dòng)力的40%。佩德拉薩表示，她希望到2015年這個(gè)數(shù)字能達(dá)到50%。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

????? Country: Cuba

????It's still a far cry from U.S. capitalism, but in recent years Cuba has taken some steps toward loosening state control over the economy. In a few notable examples, the government said it would allow people to freely buy and sell used vehicles, and get new cars without requiring a permit. Reform is slow in coming. For starters, the new cars on the market are priced so high almost no one can afford them. But lately Cuba's leaders -- Pedraza included -- have indicated they're lightening up. According to Brookings Institution research, about 40% of Cuba's workforce is now employed by the private sector. Pedraza has said she hopes to get that figure up to 50% by 2015.
