Last time I was in Cuba I saw a lot more capitalism than in the US. They charge for everything, even pissing, and the government keeps over 95% of salaries in taxes by only paying about $20 a moth to even doctors. Old gratuities, have all been eliminated. There is serious talk of eliminating even the infamous rationing book, which as bad as it is it still represents the only thing keeping Cubans from starvation. The elite lives like medieval kings and worships capitalist dollars and business.

And yet despite all your hatred, all your laziness, the fact that you can no longer live off the government by snitching on your neighbors and family, despite all that you still don't want to go back and stay in the prison island. I don't blame you jajaja. 5 countries!!! Wow, this reassures me that the US is the greatest country in the world!! Long live democracy and the ideals of the founding fathers!! Even a crazy Home Depot hater jaja is welcome in the home of the free and land of the great!!

Oh i promise this is the last thing because I have so any to tell you but I dont have so much time,

Remember what it is america a CAPITALIST COUNTRY which steal from other poor countries.

REMEMBER THAT...this is referred to you thoughts about my idiot thing living from afar...

if u are cuban and experiencing the NEW LIFE surronded from money, think about the love u r loosing for your country just because

2 dick heads presidents, america and cuba.

open your eyes not your pocket!

[gargara]

which spit on your rights before u born.

Coming back talking about this country which is a really nice country and comparing to america..because this is the case.. you should really think do u really find more freedom living in US or in CUBA???

I think cuba keep giving me good emotions.

In america is all fake starting from the people.

So from my understanding you like a plastic life surronded from money instead of a country surronded of good ppl, well dont offend other THOUGHTS then.

good luck

first of all you are the idiot and watch your fuking mouth!

I have been living and visiting 5 countries and CUBA IS ONE OF THEM with my family living aboard too!

So dont give me al lthat crap, we all know that a dictatorial country is not good (in this case reflecting to communism and fidel) and I know sociodemocrazia is one of the most beautiful thing we all should have.

btw you are talking about america..saying home depot...what a shame... america is the worst country I have lived so far ->

[cubano1979]

You should have stayed, the Cuban government is so great and democracy is so bad... It's too easy being a useful idiot from afar.

Cubano1979 I saw instead the government giving the materials and I was there!

[cubano1979]

WTF. she even gives her address and name and you really expect her to say the truth in front of a camera in a totalitarian country?? Truth is these people still don't have a roof, truth is people homeless from hurricanes that happened 15 years ago still don't have a roof or materials to build it. They are not even allowed to buy the materials in a country where there is no "Home Depot" and where they put you in jail from selling construction materials. This propaganda film is just "amazing".
