“…for the last forty years, our thought has been trapped in hollow structures of language, a stale, dead but immensely successful rhetoric. This has represented, in my view, a defeat of the intelligence and of the will.” — Harold Pinter

cuba, where 90% of the people show up to vote for the only candidate on the ballot (or they can kiss their jobs goodbye).
cuba, where gays and library owners are thrown in jail
cuba, where you go to jail if you try and leave the country.
Only a muslim/marxist/MORON would consider cuba a paradise..
If cuba is so wonderful, WHY IS NO ONE TRYING TO GO LIVE THERE, but so many are trying to get out?
Oh,I forgot, its because muslim/marxists like you morons haven’t had your chance yet to “do it better than Fidel!”
Che is dead, and Fidel will soon follow: THANK GOD! (and not your moon god bullshit)

the Way? Jon is a logical Sudamerican view. SudAmerica (Mexico to below) is in a grade of social povetry that you will be afraid, If US had the index of degradation in economical termics, US would have a 100 millons of people in the down of the povetry line. And it is clear, that in LA the 40% of the people in povetry don’t have a dollar a day (the US minimal wage is already 8 dollar the hour), an isnt because of incompetent, is because the line and margin of development of this nations dictated by the Global Economy. And LA people dream about the posibility that have Cuba, Medical Care, Education, A Superior Education in high levels, a Law sistem that works, a Pension Found, an a lot of other varieties of commoditis, In cuba they don`t have a minimun of 40% of population with bad a careless alimentation
