Correction. It was hell between 1978 and 1990. Guyana was in a good place before then, and Hoyte blocked the Jagan communists from turning Guyana into Cuba. Had Cheddi directly replaces Jagan look at Cuba and see what Guyana would have been today. In fact Guyana would have been worse, given that it started at a more backward place to begin with.
