    Cuba has the most educated population per land mass.

    They have free health care and post secondarily.

    A lot of well off countries dabble in communism Switzerland for example has universal income.

    Don’t sit here and pretend like it doesn’t work.

      Cuba also has a secret police happy to lock up any opposition. Lots of Cubans want to leave the country.

      Good education and relatively good health care is the only thing Cuba has going for it.

      Economic development was whack for decades when they wasted the generous subsidies the Soviet Union provided. Today they keep the economy afloat with cheap oil from Venezuela and remittance sent by the diaspora.

      To this day Cuba rations food with coupons and most people are poor.

      I’ve been to Cuba for work. I don’t plan on going back unless it’s for work. Dabbling is not the same as being a fully communist country. No health care is “free”.

        Same.

        The rhetoric you push is against the very policies that are considered communist. You just admitted that communist policies are used in the countries.

        Please use your brain.

        Plus you’re copying my word because you’re not that clever.

        This is the power of the brain.
