Interesting that the man in the background wearing the red shirt (from 0:50 to 0:59) covers his face with his cap as the camera is showing this view. I wonder why?

@PureSoapCleans castro kicked out the u.s mafia/ who ran the brothel /casinos. Bastica was a usa stooge

filthy negroe communists

[whatsmyname361]

the jews fucked up the US already, dont let them fuck up Cuba once it turns to capitalism

[FantomasMXss]

El ex-futbolista cocainomano Diego Maradona se fue a vivir a Cuba porque alli abunda esa droga andinoamericana que es traficada hacia la florida. Pero los medios estadounidenses nunca o muy rararamente reportan sobre eso y sobre la prostitucion infantil que en cuba abunda!

[Chapulinazuladomx]

cubans are the cheap labor force for the jews

[Chapulinazuladomx]

kICK OUT THE CUBANS FROM CUBA, EXILE THEM IN MIAMI-GAY

THEN FREE PALESTINE, AND LET THE JEWS MOVE TO CUBA AND CREATE A NEW ISRAEL IN THE CARIBBEAN, CLOSE TO THE USA AND CLOSE TO COLOMBIA

[freddyintrouble]

@Chapulinazuladomx there there I cocaine is one hell of a drug...

[solarpanels3]

Let the jews fuck americans up.

Stay away from cuba you parasites.

[solarpanels3]

put a ban on jews in cuba

[Chapulinazuladomx]

cubans are cheap labor force

[Alfa7beta0]

JewRemax and JewCentury 21 own Cuba. the blockade is a joke, cuba is a jump board and joke, castro is a puppet. Cubans are slaves

[BeingOStupid]

What a shit hole.

[guberskank]

@PureSoapCleans you can always save up for 2 weeks wages and immigrate to the american welfare system, not that you'd want to ;)

Cuba is currently where the USSR was in 1980-ies. Private restaurants and small shops are appearing. The other video here on AlJazeera that does not allow commenting shows "entrepreneurs" selling nuts and bolts and NOT being prosecuted for that. They could not make these bolts themselves, this requires large factory and proper tooling. This means they stole the bolts from the government and sell them for profit. With such developments, Cuba will go the way of the USSR in 5 years or less. R.I.P.

[LouisianaGatorGirl]

What is the use of this law if Cubans have no money to buy real estate to begin with?

[stangeriam]

Obama's brother at :30 sec

[PRIVATEAYEIEYE]

Evict GITMO!

[eternallord]

I don't see how letting people sell their homes to acquire funds for a new one was "anti-communism" in the first place, especially when you'd let them trade it away.. The entire point of currency is to make trading easier.. There are many ways to regulate real estate trade so it doesn't get out of hand without banning it entirely.

ideological purity is dumb.

[arivas713]

slowly but surely communism will give way--look at "communist' china, only after abandoning many maoist practices are they an economical force in the world. now look at cuba, the people will improve their homes because they now own it and they can make it their own. plus, it will be worth more if they took care of their homes, improving it, as much as you can.

[kaleo183rd]

Fuck the free-market, The free-Market is free for those who can affordit, and willing to expliot others

[eternallord]

@kaleo183rd free market fundamentalism is bad, but cuban laws are also bad... Why would you regulate how many homes some one can buy? It isn't like some one is going to come along and buy up an entire city block!

[LazarusCato]

@eternallord sarcasm? people buy up entire blocks all the time, might not be possible for Cubans just yet, but I could think of some wealthy foreigners to the north who might like to take advantage of this.

[eternallord]

@LazarusCato I doubt they'd let some foreigner start buying up property like that.. Also, there are ways to curb stuff like that, so it's not likely to happen anytime soon, and it can be dealt with in the future without massive bans now.

As a republican housing is the one thing that I think should be nationalized

[ZSwierczynski]

I smell a housing bubble!

[pvtjamesryan3]

Cuba is a fucking shithole.

Looks like Haiti

[LazarusCato]

@pvtjamesryan3 yeah except they've got free & universal healthcare & education (thru university), more doctors per capita then any other country, 95% of the food they grow is organic, they've been thru peak oil, they offer medical scholarships to the 3rd world, they have virtually the same life expectancy as americans, & have a lower infant mortality rate then the US etc etc - all this from Nickel & Cigar exports & a crippling embargo from a superpower - I'd say Cuba is doing ok.

[pvtjamesryan3]

@LazarusCato

You're more than welcome to leave....except you won't

All of the stupid people migrate to the United States...then bitch bout how shit it is. I love every minute of it.

[LazarusCato]

@pvtjamesryan3 I guess big mac's, bently's & Benjamin's mean more to some people then others.

[solarpanels3]

@pvtjamesryan3 Have you been there???? No becouse hay is sticking out of your boots, you idiot

[upabittoolate]

So can I buy land there or is it reserved to citizens?

[DefTheMarxist]

They may as well. Unless China or Venezuela are willing to pump some investment in the country, there's little point letting people live in unsatisfactory conditions. I wouldn't call for a return to capitalism, but I'd say they need more direct democracy and a rethink on how the economy should be run in the 21st century.

[jatigre1]

Can you imagine millions of people going outside to march in favor of maintaining this dilapidated and backward standard of living. Its their own Country and their own government.

[upabittoolate]

@jatigre1 Trust me, millions won't.

[Hillsillverr]

I cube ur not allowed to sell property because u r not allowed to own land. In america you have to pay property tax on the land you own, so tachnically you dont own land there either!

Freedom my ass!

[munib1000]

@Hillsillverr OK, I get what your saying but two things you pay propety tax in britain( council tax) for services like garbage collecting and street cleaning and many other services and number two I rather own my own property and pay tax on it then have someone come one day and kick me out of my house.

[sumeone123]

@Hillsillverr What do taxes have to do with ownership?

[yorubablk3]

@Hillsillverr amen!

[SocialistMovement]

@Hillsillverr

Word.....You're Just As Fucked Here

As The United States Claims You're

Fucked In A Communist Country

[Pedrofrombrazil]

@Hillsillverr Fly to Cuba!

@WAV777 Buy the ticket, take the ride

[deceiver123m]

All i know is that i am waiting until I, a non cuban, can purchase a vacation home there

[jnixongo00]

[JewTube001]

A few comments in and people are already trolling.

[xilliah]

Socialism!

[ChillpointNews]

"In communist Cuba..." AlJazeera, come on...

[HDaviator]

@ChillpointNews

...it is a communist state... what do you mean?

[ChillpointNews]

@HDaviator A communist state? That's an oxymoron.

[AManNamedCM2]

@ChillpointNews Humanistic Communism: Another Oxymoron.

[ChillpointNews]

@AManNamedCM2 Sure, have a laugh. It's all fun and games until you educate yourself.

[Tougemaster06]

@HDaviator Historic communism is different from the Communist system.

[historyman9]

@ChillpointNews Its the new thing.....

[yuriythebest]

[wafflethug]
