From the AP:
A coalition of U.S. business leaders and economic experts on Thursday advocated new efforts to spur private enterprise in Cuba and help its residents.
The Washington-based Cuba Study group and several nonprofits laid out a proposal including websites to match independent Cuban businesses with donors, and programs to allow people in the U.S. to take out loans on behalf of relatives on the island. It also favors allowing limited imports from independent workers and cooperatives in Cuba [...]
"The overall premise of the report is that there is a private sector," said Mauricio Claver-Carone, head of the U.S.-Cuba Democracy PAC. "There is no private sector because Cubans can't own anything. Everything is leased by the government."
He also questioned the groups' goal of helping Cuba become more like China or Vietnam, which he labeled "economic-light dictatorships."
