“Despite its poverty, Cuba has managed some impressive accomplishments. Cuba’s government boasts the highest literacy rates for its population of any nation in the hemisphere. Cuba claims its citizens enjoy universal access to health care and more doctors per capita than any other nation in the Americas. Cuba’s doctors, reportedly, have high quality medical training.”
It really is quite amusing how many people believe the Cuban government or for that matter place all their measuring sicks on the quality of a nation on a few cherry picked government Favorited statistic.
Soviet Russia had a great military and Space program for their size but they had to dump everything into those programs, particularly space exploration. In all cases Soviet success in even theses cherry picked areas was greatly over stated and their failures utterly covered up.
Cuba has no problem telling as many lies, although the facts of their circumstances are not nearly so easy for their dictatorship to hide. Only a leftist with designs on the same sort of power would choose to ignore the truth wile spinning the lies.
The other issue that you cant ignore is in Cuba Students don’t fool around, and the schools don’t wast nearly as much time on nonsense. This is because the Cubans are not afraid of imposing real consequences.
US public schools run by Liberals and leftist ideology have been a progressive failure sense the 1960’s.
The most impressive thing about Cuba is how they made crappy GM cars run for over 60 years.
