A three-page feature in the Communist Party-daily Granma details new regulations about a laundry list of small-time businesses now available to start. Among the changes, 83 private activities will be allowed to employ people other than their relatives, and they will be able to sell their services to the state as private contractors. Granma reported that private businesses would not only pay personal income tax, but also sales and payroll taxes — as well as contribute to social security.
