I don't own any, sorry. Keep spewing nonsense and backing out since you have no facts for your garbage.How many Che Guevarra T-shirts do you own? Go ahead and keep on praising dictatorships from a country where you have the freedom to do so. As soon as the embargo is lifted and Cuba begins to prosper from the Capitalism of the U.S., the people there will realize what they've been missing.No facts, more anecdotal bullshit completely out of place with reality. Keep spewing bullshit. I've provided evidence for all of my factual claims, you keep spewing garbage. Truly idiotic. "3rd world healthcare" Yeah, which is why there infant mortality is extremely low, and there life expectancy is one of the highest. Compare cuba before and after the revolution, genius. The "castro" is a murderer bullshit, yeah, he led a violent revolution to overthrow a corrupt government with the support of those who were suffering, of course violence happened, jesus christ, do you have any evidence? Read my damn post, and get back to your cave.Castro is a monster. There's a reason people flee on rafts as safe as driftwood from there. Under his reign there was no freedom in Cuba; dissidents were jailed and murdered, there was no food for the people, there were no amenities for the people, and Castro lived lavishly off of USSR and other countries contributions in exchange for his allegiance. Years ago in the 90's my uncle was allowed to leave Cuba for a month in the U.S... he gained 30 pounds. The people drive shit cars from the 50's. They don't BUILD anything there! Just take what the government gives them.
The U.S. is partly culpable for doing nothing. We enacted an embargo that essentially cemented Castro's rule, and even now many want to keep it in place and allow Cuba to do whatever it wants without the influence if its closest neighbor and the most powerful country in the world.
I can tell you didn't bother to read my post, so let's get started. Castro is a monster? Please, enlighten me instead of spewing senseless propaganda. People flee on rafts made of driftwood? I assume you refer to the wealthy fleeing after the peasants/the poor won the revolution, which did happen, but now, people are allowed to leave Cuba if they apply, it doesn't take to long, and people are allowed to leave quite often, however, yes, people do leave on boats sometimes, no one denies that. Dissidents were jailed and murdered? Ok, let's imagine you just led a violent revolution against an oppressive government with the majority rallying behind you in a third world country with the people calling for you to kill the traitors. Tell me where you get your facts please. No food? Are you fucking kidding me? The facts disagree with you on ALL levels, and my aunt is from fucking cuba, she was one of the wealthy who left on the boats, and even she is honest enough to admit cuba is better off for the majority of people, which s surprising. Oh god, the 50's car bullshit, when will people quit pretending that means anything to the cuban people? Public transportation, not being obsessed with grabbing some fancy car, why does that matter to you? They don't build anything? Tell me more about cuban housing before and after the revolution, education, healthcare, doctors they send worldwide, the democracy they have, the overwhelming millions who wanted "socialism" permanently put into the constitution, and your anecdotal claim means nothing to me, no Cubans are starving, homelessness is virtually eradicated, literacy is 99.8% (100%) healthcare is guaranteed, even though it has its flaws..
Castro is a monster?
Yes. He killed many of his own, in order to become a dictator. No dissent was allowed during his reign.
People flee on rafts made of driftwood?
No moron, people flee on rafts AS SAFE as driftwood, meaning dangerous, meaning they risk their lives. People are fleeing TO THIS DAY in those rafts. How many of THOSE from, let's say 2014, were wealthy before the revolution?
Dissidents were jailed and murdered?
You admitted this was correct in your post. So there's no point in me answering it. Btw, dissenters continue to be jailed.
No food?
There's some food. But if you have too much, you better hide some of it. Or the government WILL ACTUALLY come question you.
Oh god, the 50's car bullshit, when will people quit pretending that means anything to the cuban people?
Well apparently they're allowing some new imports now. Get ready to pay $50,000 for a $15,000 car. Oh and I'm only referring to the current wealthy who are able to pay for that with their political connections.
They don't build anything?
No they don't. Their top exports are sugar and cigars. And sure they have healthcare, the best healthcare the 3rd world has to offer.
