Castro: The Cuban Model Doesn't Work

In a recent interview, Fidel Castro has admitted that communism doesn't work. To many that's just stating the obvious, but I'm sure many intellectual elites will be saddened and maybe even angered by Castro's words. When asked by Atlantic journalist if Cuba's economic model should be exported around the world to other nations, Castro replied:

The Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore.

Can someone please tell Obama?
