You hit the nail on the head. I have been there 7 times and it is indeed poor due to the US. I have enc everyone I know to take clothing, medical supplies, anything to give to the people. I had to laugh one friend took 40lbs of nails and screws on the flight. It is greatly appreciated by them and they will always give you something back, like a couple of melons or figs. They do apprec the effort. but it is heartbreaking. Cnds are very welcome there. We don't have small minds like the US.
As for the so called past legend for Cuba having been 'a Mecca of the Carribean', you seem to forget that Cuba was also known as the Brothel of the Carribean back then. Precisely, international bankers, financiers and entrepreneurs were exceptionally calling Cuba among them a Casino Prostitute Economy and were praising of the Batista's Dictatorial Regime. In fact, Castro's rule really did change Cuba a lot. Yet, things can only get better as soon as the US lifts their murderous embargo.
You blame Fidel's regime for the death of over 1 million Cubans. Yet, you completely fail to blame the US Regime for having imposed throughout all those years an even more murderous embargo onto the Cuban people. That is not even fair.

If you define "free" as no freedom of speech, assembly and press and no free and open elections.

A long time ago there was an island, a very beautifull one. The North Americans wanted it and people like Fedel Castro said "No Thank you ".
Long time after that island is still free. The End.
