Because Cuba must be the only country in the world where the doctors are so poor that they must sell their bodies for food or panties.

 

I guess that another of your facts pulled straight from your kakahole.

My son recently visited and said after speaking to some of the musicians there found the musicians,even though not well off, make a bit more than doctors do, it is a strange place alright. Unless they have a tier where certain drs are paid well and others eg family dr who spends the majority of time pushing pills, are paid less.

So in a nutshell, the panty story could hold true, plus I kinda like any panty story.

Better to use engineering jargon, mister.

VVP is trying to tell us that Cubans are richer than Bahamians.

Where did I say that?  From what I understand from people who visited Cuba the people are content because they see themselves in a struggle against the USA embargo.  The Canadians who vacation there that I talked to love the place.

I would like to visit to see for myself but the USA blocks me.   I thought we had freedom of travel in the US. 

I would like to see the embargo end and free and fair elections WITHOUT US interference.  Let the people decide!

Bahamas has a poverty rate way above 1.5% so basically you are claiming that Cuba is one of the richest countries in the world to have a poverty rate that low.

I can only wonder why you think that in a country with a thousand ears you think that a Cuban will tell a foreigner what he really thinks.  As it is when a Cuban talks to a tourist he is being observed. If he tells them that Cuba is a hell hole, that he loves Obama, and that he is glad that Castro is dead, he will be instantly arrested.   When he is sent home likely that his balls will be crushed, or his face permanently disfigured.

Ask yourself how many Guyanese would have gone to Pegasus and cussed out Burnham to some foreigner, when one never knew who was listening?  NO ONE!

In fact the vast majority of Cubans are poor, as the vast majority do not earn enough to feed themselves. Many live in buildings that collapse, and in fact every year scores of Cubans die when their homes fall down on them. The survivors are banished to live 2 hours from their jobs in a country where few own cars and where mass transit is almost absent.

I can only wonder why a country where the average person must work TWO months, to be able to buy a shirt is a land where you admire.

Listen Burnham used to cuss out the USA and the UK and rant all sorts of anti imperialist crap, so if that is all that it takes to earn your admiration you must seriously consider him a hero.

And who are these people to decide what happens in Cuba?  Where are the free and fair elections? What mechanisms do Cubans have to communicate what they really think?

I bet you scream that Burnham was a dictator, even though Janet and Cheddi had the right to run their mouths on him and go to the UN and scream that he has turned Guyana into an apartheid.

You think that if they said that about Castro they would be alive?

No they would be either shot by a firing squad, or would be ranting incoherently in Miami.

And you are just making an excuse.  Those who really want to go to Cuba can easily find a way to go.  Just join some group engaged in some kind of people to people tour, and off you go.  Many travel agencies will happily arrange this.
