A Walk in Cuba: Life After Castro

[lemanusamoa]

"Coercion, after all, merely captures Man. Freedom Captivates him." -Ronald Reagan. Capitalism although imperfect has lifted millions out of poverty and has been a bulwark against tyrants such as fidel castro. People from all over the world risk their lives and escape their country to come to this great land of freedom and opprotunity. Communism is a threat to free men and women everywhere. I hope we can be as brave as Harriet Tubman:free our brothers and sisters from the chains of coercion.

[anondrogys]

CUBA SI ! YANQUI NO !

[bigsapo1245]

VIVA FIDEL YOU UNGREATFUL CUBANS

Ernesto Guevara

[MrTurkeybird09]

its amazing what a little capitalism will do for the communist

[Pogokoala]

@MrTurkeybird09 So true! that why a lot of cuban will move to a capitalism country to better themself right? that why there isn't much Jewban as they were after Castro took over right? that why a lot of North Korean will do anything in their soul to go down to South Korea right? seriously your a complete jack ass.

[MrTurkeybird09]

@Pogokoala motherfucker I'm talking about how communsim is bound to fail and progress to a freemarket type system you dumb fuck

[Pogokoala]

@MrTurkeybird09 I enjoy your response lol

[FidelCastro128]

Americans will return in what 15-20 years? Idealy it will be a socialist democratic

island nation which serves its citizens. The taxi driver is a perfect example of cubans

not talking the 'real truth' about Cuba & Castro.

[FidelCastro128]

Americans will return in what 15-20 years? Idealy it will be a socialist democratic

island nation which serves its citizens.

[Roacheater]

This is paradise to an OBAMA worshiper.

[radmilitant]

I'll support Cuban election reforms which presumably would make it possible to elect a capitalist leadership, when the United States supports election reforms right here that make it possible to elect a Communist leadership.

[777SONOFRIGHT777]

cubans better be careful what they wish for. Before Castro everything wasnt all good. Their was a revolution there for a reason

[jackson0knollwood]

@777SONOFRIGHT777 the revolution took place due to two factors. Soviet financial backing and influence and Che Guervara's (a foreigner) army.

[tziuriky86]

The only reason why communism do not work without dictatorship is the selfish istinct of humans.Neverthless the arrogant and consumerist sistem of capitalism is better: you are free to get what the capitalists convince you need.You are free to work for them and to buy from them what they say it's good for you, this thing will be soon old and you will have to replace it, of course, at their price.They call it "freedom". I call it scam.Not better then communism, at all.And bad for the environment.

[yandykun]

@tziuriky86 hey idiot. we need to be ambitious so we can progress. cuba is frozen. fuck u. if u are not cuban then do not say anything about cuba cuz u dont know shit

[DSD1v57BG32]

OH WOW< this "doc" is complete B.S

[SweetCaramelDip]

its like you gringos want that great leader to die!

[aztecs1948]

better way of life? McDonald on every corner?

stupid yankies...

Cuban never be usa colony again..

Companies like United Fruits are waiting to put their hands on agricultural lands, banks are waiting to debt people who wants to go to hospital, university, buy a house etc, hospitals for rich

Just look what is happening in Dominicana, Haiti, Honduras, Salvador, Guatemala. Companies owning almost all countries, changings goverments, givng bribes for contracts , treating local poeple as scum.

[manny667]

@aztecs1948 stupid

[aztecs1948]

@manny667 we had communism in Poland. So dont compare Cuba with comunist countries cos you dont know what are you saying...

[jackson0knollwood]

@aztecs1948 I would rather see a McDonalds and a Starbucks on every corner then see people go to PRISON for making or fixing items without the governments consent.

[aztecs1948]

@jackson0knollwood US and A are happy to hear Your voice. Just compare education level in Cuba and other latin countries...

[Pogokoala]

@aztecs1948 the problem is simple. Fire the crook, but yes bring a Mcdonald because the food is cheaper. Those people in Cuba don't have shit! My cousin lives in Cuba born and rise there, AND right his a Doctor too, and what do Doctor get? not a degree, just a use bicycle is that something your campaigning for? What a fucking jerk you assholes are. And his not making any money so he will never get the chance to travel elsewhere or visit. Because your Pro-communist Government does not allowed it

[TheDutchGame]

I've only seen 0:57 seconds of this video. And now already I see that the US want's to take over?! My god what happened to independence?! Is'nt that what you Americans truly want?! You where a colony of Great Briton and now that you are free you think you have the right to control everything?! NO! YOU DON"T!! STOP MEDDLENING LEAVE US ALONE!!!

[WorkHard91]

@TheDutchGame poor ignorant !

go take some English classes and then come back

[eatmypies]

fuckin USA think they can just walk in THINK AGAIN the whole fuckin world will unite against you arrogant cunts.

[WorkHard91]

@eatmypies you poor asshole :P 

[WorldPaladin]

Fuck the revolution. Look at these buildings. They look like they are going to fall apart

[diomedes39]

@WorldPaladin I'm sure that it has nothing to do with the fact that Cuba's largest potential trading partner is prohibited from doing business with them.

[jackson0knollwood]

@WorldPaladin i guess we to start a revolution the start some renovation

[PesiCool]

@WorldPaladin Watch 2 documentaries:

How Cuba Survived Peak Oil

South Of The Border

:)

[THESTAFFIECHANNEL]

Do they really think that Cuba will just let America roll in with a truck load of rich exiles ready to lord it over the working class and turn the place into Americas Brothel all over again?..USA you are dreaming. Obama would never let that happen.And Chavez wouldnt let that happen.

[alfonsoneto1985]

MAnipulation !

[hebneh]

When the Castro era ends and capitalism returns to Cuba - and someday it will, just as it did in China and Russia and Eastern Europe and Vietnam - there'll be the huge problem of Cubans whose property was confiscated demanding to get it back, or to be paid reparations for it. And this will include everyone from individuals, to families, to corporations, dating back over the last 50 years. That's going to be part of the transition that'll cause a LOT of headaches, and worse.

[Sexisttroll]

its amazing how blind people can be... you can bitchslap them with the truth and they would still yell the same shit...

[fran21ish]

Fuck U.S media..

[WorkHard91]

@fran21ish FUCK Cuban MEDIA !!!

everything they talk about is

- Accomplishments and good things about Cuba, why ?

it is controlled by the government.

or why do you think there is only one newspaper ???

[stellunasoleil]

Apparently the only way to make Cuba look bad is to misrepresent the country as a police state so the Americans can look at the BS that actual control we live under as "freedom". Our poverty is just as bad, if not worse (homelessness) and the taxes we paid fund banks, car companies and wars.

[WorkHard91]

@stellunasoleil this here ain't a lie !!!

I'm cuban and every single thing about this documentary is TRUE

[MissAntiRight]

The reporters should be interviewing some poor people in America. Ask them how well capitalism is working.

[WorkHard91]

@MissAntiRight at least they can speak bad about the US government

[MAJISTYGOD]

CASTRO IS MORE DEMOCRATIC THAN ELVIS & RACISM......LOL!

[nnnnnsssssssssllllln]

y yo soiiiiiii cubano tambien so I'm warning you don't come at me with the bullshit comments cuz you will fucking fail miserabaly... y yo soy NO ANTI CASTRO EITHER... if it wasn't por castro afro cubanos would be getting shitted on harder than what they are now...

[nnnnnsssssssssllllln]

the reporter is being such a mamalon... he has no idea that he was putting the cab driver and possibly his familia in a lot of danger... he knows damn well if that cabbie speaks out and somebody in the government catches wind of it that the government is gonna tax and spank dat ass something serious or even worst death... I hate fucking reporters like that who come into cuba to do bullshit interviews and try to strir up some shit tuuuu save... gtfo with this mierda...

[Desdeelexilio]

I have read some of the comments here and they are laughable. How little the typical American knows about Cuba. They should go there, leave their dirty capitalist dollars in the US and go to live with the equivalent of $10 a day without any freedom. In less than a week they will be building a raft and fight the treacherous Florida Straits to go to Miami.

[polo5316]

this is some bullshit reporting!  que viva cuba and fidel castro!!!

[WorkHard91]

@polo5316 are you Cuban ? if not GTFO !!!

you don't know anything about Cuba

[sataraid]

Since the revolution, Cuba has progressed from third place out of 11 Latin American countries for per capita daily calorific intake, according to the United Nations Statistical Yearbook, to 11th and last today.

I have lived there. There is no free speach. Schools dont teach Cuba history before Fidel. The country is being deprived by commie/Nazi cronies of basic human rights.

[jimmy59ca]

This reporter is looking to make trouble, he should be reporting in Detroit and get their opinion on how the government is working for the poor people there, Battista was giving Cuba to the gangsters, Fiedel took over

[gmontalcc]

*** jimmy59ca ***..." and Fidel took over... " ,

Yes, indeed he took over to continue to do what Batista did and more worst... at least Batista's "dictatorship", you could leave and immigrate and not be called or marked as "gusano".

Also Fidel has given (sold) Cuba to the gangsters, To Spain, Canada, Wealthy Americans, Italians, and whoever has the big buck to "invest", into tourism, money laundry, Narcotics, weapons, terrorism, espionage. All this in the name of the "Fatherland or Die"

[ChicoPeligroso]

@jimmy59ca I agree with you on that!!! 

[WorkHard91]

@jimmy59ca how do you even know that ???

[Terrra91]

"Capitalism and democracy are not synonomous" - Immortal Technique

I hate the way the US gov feels its necessary for it to fuckin police the world. So much sufferin has come from dat 'right'.

[cogfy]

@Terrra91 Im with you man...I mean come on let the fucking world deal with their own problems and stop dicking up other countries.

[WorkHard91]

@Terrra91 this documentary here * speaks the true *

[Terrra91]

@WorkHard91 Gandhi taught me that the truth will inevitably be discovered. People on this video are discovering the truth of Cuba and soon we'll all be discovering the truth of fiasco 9/11. Its a damn shame that people will look up to airhead actors and socialites and smirk at someone like Gandhi. His mental strength is staggering.

[Pogokoala]

@Terrra91 no jack ass. US does not police the world, But if a country is going down to shit then you would want them to police them. So what more do you idiot want Do it yourself, you got mad money do it yourself.

[lumster]

Does Cuba need a "democracy" which is run by a foreign lobby called AIPAC too? The US needs to work on its own democracy instead of worrying about other country's governments. Nobody voted for the Zio-Nazi and neo-con rape of Iraq, Lebanon, Afghanistan or Gaza in America but the US taxpayer picked up the tab with blood and money for all of them!

[lumster]

A US led democracy! Ha! Ha! It is only an illusion in America, itself. The so called democracy is nothing more than a government run by special interest lobbies in which AIPAC is the biggest! It is a foreign lobby that puts Israel's interests before the American electorate's. Nobody voted for Bush and the Zio-Nazi's war crimes at Israel behest but they had to send their sons to die, and tax money, anyway! Demoracy in Cuba? American style? ha! ha! ha! ha! Do they need this?

[rwzal]

too much : "Americans are good,Americans are nice,Americans have money,etc"

Mr. Reporter:Just focus on the documentary and don't force to hate Americans more than thet are already all over the world....

Rate: KK DE LA VAKA !

[danbielby]

great piece of american progaganda b.s.

[utubegirlx]

IMO this is heavily biased and not very good journalism.

I was not pleased with this report, and I hope others can see what I can.

I do speak both English and Spanish fluently and did understand all of what was being discussed.

[timand2037]

the Washington-Miami *transition* plans would make Cuba another Haiti - fortunately Cuban people are resisting this ..

[chewyn123]

Kids are safe after dark, but they are TOO limited in everything. They are suffering, but that doesnt show from them. I couldnt beleive inside their house, its unbelievable, its bad :S

Smart people with no futur

[Diegojetsetter1988]

The Cuban's are extremely intelligent people, smart, nice. Too bad they live in a gov't which doesn't even allow them to travel freely within their own country. For everybody that comments here... please shut up... If you haven't been to Cuba and spoken to people there please don't give an opinion about jackshit... YOU know nothing... When you go to Cuba and stay there for 2 months...... I unlike you dimwits have actually see what they have to suffer do to their gov't

[haphathazard]

You're absolutely right. My family is full of Cuban immigrants who escaped Castro's regime.

When people tell me everything is great over there and I don't know what I'm talking about, they're basically calling me and my family liars.

I hate liars.

[edwardoalvarez22]

The Communiste system in Cuba is not real Communiste, even said by the Russians. Thats Castos's Communiste his own bruto way of staying in power. If I get sick in Cuba with the bad medical care they got of there own people, I'd rather die in peace them in torment. Unfornately, Castro has turn Cuba into a Hell Hole.

[andre99d]

Ive been in a hospital in cuba, and I can tell you, it beats any hospital I was in North America. Most Cuban dissidents in the US are brain washed by CNN and your own agenda's. I go to Cuba twice a year. I ved there for a few years. Guess what, they got more class and happiness than any 'Cuban-American' I ever met!

Open your eyes. Ignorance will not solve anything!

[andre99d]

U dont know what your talking about!!

Too much CNN faggot!

[andre99d]

And how would you know?

I lived in Cuba for 3 years. They dont want americans there!

Accept it!

[squire85]

of course the american blockade of cuba and the embargo on their goods have not helped at all

[CubanoLyfe]

ok im the only cuban in da middle of this 0.o

[savavrbas]

In Cuba, children are rooming free on the streets, and play well after dark, and their mothers don't have to worry about pedophiles like in USA.

Way you live you life you will destroy anything in human value, because animals in USA are more cared for than for sick and old people. Please don't spread you "convinient" democracy to any country. And stop placing restrictions on people traveling to Cuba, because even in NAZI Germany under Hitler, people did travel. You are most hated nation !

[yington]

u dont even live in Cuba u fcukin moron.

u wouldnt want to live there in a million years!

[Evoraul]

viva cuba libre!!!!

[xavon70]

W Cuba , W Fidel -

[JOESACE007]

bin there there animals so doesnt make a difrence

[oratorspeaker]

very proud suffering!! haha keep your revolution! we dont want any of it!

[chulodeholguin]

oratorspeaker you fucking terrorist

[MopacMurtaza]

This is such a biased report!!!!!!

[InfiniteMushroom]

If the power structure wants to survive Castro's death, Fidel had better let loose some of his personal wealth that he's got stashed away in foreign bank accounts. That money would go a long way in Cuba and make life much better for everyone if distributed fairly.

[InfiniteMushroom]

If you think Cuba is bad now, wait until the transnational corporate vultures come up from the hell that is Wall Street to steal, kill, destroy, rape, loot, and plunder the Cuban nation and its people after Castro dies or his power structure is overthrown. Cuba can be saved without being cast into the same corporate gutter as the U.S.

[budfr]

fuck calle 8, viva la revolución por siempre.

[BlackHatLinwix]

Fidel and Chaves are not brothers, they are strong allies, Chaves is president of venezuela, Venezuela hols a significant amount of oil supply to the US.

The US government is could be scared to death if Venezuela raises their Oil price, Chaves has some control of the US, he can even deand the embargo to be lifted.

[BlackHatLinwix]

I smell World War III.

The US should not intefier with Cuba, Venezuela is a strong ally with Cuba, Venezuela holds a significant amount of Oil supply to the US.

The US should stop acting like a foolish nation, example; Middle east ans North Korea.

[darkcomadreja]

The end of this video takes the cake its 100% accurate if people talk ill about the government they are taken to jail and God knows what else You might see written in the walls patria o muerte = patriotisms or death

anyone who is taped and questioned risk their own work and life if they talk ill about the government thats it so in the end its true the government controls the people by fear, and since there isnt anyone to help them then they have to obey

[nickvanzetti]

oh you must remember so much when you were 8. more like youve been brainwashed by miami mafia worms!!! to hell with calle 8. or 8th street! like it or not you and your friends are living in gringo land not cuba!

[nickvanzetti]

the dancing drunk asses on Calle Ocho in Miami are all idiots and I pray that they never have "their Capitalit Cuba" to go back too. no you worms are all stuck in the shit hole miami forever!

[prepschoolkid]

@nickvanzetti Miami is actually pretty nice

[nickvanzetti]

@prepschoolkid ok. maybe for you.

[nickvanzetti]

If Cuba opens their market to the USA then Cuba will become like every other dependant hell hole on earth like Haiti and Dominican Republic! All cubans and americans from cuba are going to be sorry they ever let the us corporations in. they are going to eat and destroy Cuba and shit out a mafia,capitalist,whore house,casino,exploited little playground for all the yanqui gringoes! VIVA Socialismo y independencia de CUBA!!!!!!!

[60chevi]

please die you old fart fidel and take your sisters raul and chavez to hell with you

[kidd8k]

i agreee

the hell with those three motherfuc*ers

[artdezurama]

FACT!! In Cuba, 60 out of 100 pregnancies ends by voluntary abortions, which are legal and are performed by doctors.

[RoseSword]

What does this fact have to do with the movie?? (first off, and secondly....) Actually, not really, if the doctors feel that the child will be born less than perfect, they lie to the women telling them that their is something wrong with the baby and that they have to operate immediately, only for the women to be told that it was too late. And the few that knowingly do it, are scared to to bring a child into that world of communism, where your child is not your own but the governments.

[elmundo88]

FACT Cuba has a lower infant mortality rate than the USA, a higher living age, Free health care and a free education system...not bad for a third world country!

[jagfish1964]

Castro is a pathological liar, and YOU believe him. Sir, you are an idiot.

[RoseSword]

Look at my other post, as to how they keep that infant mortality rate down. And that free health care...doesn't include much, not even aspirin, open your eyes, and look beyond what they want you to see!

[ozbir24]

you are brain washed cubans. who wants to fidel die even kill. but the man even has respect by all the world including his enemies. you live in a wealt in america do you ever think where this wealth comes from. the dolar which you earn isn`t green they are blood colour red, they are blood of third world countries blood.

[patient0Studios]

You know that thing they call "measuring his words."

, we usually call that thinking...

way to go neo-conservative capitalists.

[patient0Studios]

this is such a sad video. I cant wait to see this guy make a video on how America "liberated": Iraq.

[saintrambone]

The United States Negative Capitalists have won. The Positive Capitalists have died, retired, taken a seat outside, or executed. Federal FDIC bank examiner wants to denounce casinos and money laundering at federally insured banks of casino funds. If Kurt Brown Saint Ram Bone arrives, please give regards to whoever is in charge there and to please not seize my transport device. saintrambone videos have some proof, some destroyed by fed in 2001, Mobile Audit Club site has more

[jrcnd]

Died Fidel..Died dictator !

[Tostig68]

I've never been to a country so full of dishonest locals trying to fleece the tourists as Cuba, and I have been to much poorer countries.

[auxhernandez81]

LMAO! what makes the U.S. think that the Cuban people are going to allow the yankees march into their homeland and impose their "democracy"???

just like they are doing in Iraq, Haiti and have done in other impoverish Latin American countries they have raped of natural resources and help corrupt them

[QuendaNsulu]

Yea, the Cuban socialist party is the structure we should all copy... The USA is not the greatest nation that ever existed, but it's better than anything thing what's in Cuba...

[Pogokoala]

@QuendaNsulu Sure if you like Child Prostitution, Then we can Sure as HELL be like Cuba. Because when I went to Cuba the Food was limited unlike in America we got all the food if we can all do our part (get a job!) But in Cuba a waiters works and doesn't get paid shit only tips will feed him and his family if he/she is lucky enough to make some good tip money, why? because their check goes to the government! OH but wait! they have an Option! sell their kids! yes! we should follow Cuba Structure!
