CUBA is the most sustainably developed country in the world, according to a new report launched today. The socialist island outperforms advanced capitalist countries including Britain and the United States, which has subjected Cuba to a punitive six-decades-long economic blockade. The Sustainable Development Index (SDI), designed by anthropologist and author Dr Jason Hickel, calculates its results by dividing a nation’s “human development” score, obtained by looking at statistics on life expectancy, health and education, by its “ecological overshoot,” the extent to which the per capita carbon footprint exceeds Earth’s natural limits.

This is what the climate change hoax is all about...they want everyone on Earth (except the socialist masters) living in abject poverty.

I know people who have been to Cuba. They say it’s the worst place they’ve ever been. And they’ve been to a lot of places.

It's true. When you don't HAVE anything, you can't waste it. That's Leftist thought.

If you WANT anything, the Government arrests you, for counter-revolutionary thought. They shoot you, so your family stops this wanting thing, or at least shuts up about it.

What the hell is it with the lefts obsession with communism? This is like saying “Cyanide makes a good mouth wash” and people are killed trying it and then saying “Well, just keep trying it until it works!” And then you get into their utter hypocrisy, the constantly call Trump a fascist, a dictator and then they praise these countries run by dictators where people are literally killed if they try to leave!
