CUBA IN 1959: Little by little, the Cuban Revolution discarded the pretense of participatory democracy and began to show its Marxist roots more clearly and openly. The executions were extended; the confiscations increased until all the private property on the island was finished; all private schools closed; Religious expressions were confined exclusively within the churches and temples. To leave or enter the island, including those born in it, a government permit was necessary. The possession of foreign currency and the circulation of another currency that was not a new revolutionary currency without exchangeable value outside of Cuba was declared illegal.
