Bankrupt Cuba's 'Silly Ideology'...?

Bankrupt Cuba's "Silly Ideology"...?
And what about the silly ideology of a shameless superstition-ridden money-mad power-crazed economically-war-dependent oil-addicted hyper-consumerist society whose debt is owned by Communist China and the House of Saud?
The tragedy isn’t that Cuba rejected out-of-hand the Anglo-Protestant Jerk Ethic, but that its efforts to create a “worker’s paradise” haven’t succeeded according to capitalist specifications. Of course, for the transnational Masterclass and its faithful little collaborators courtiers and divines to discredit the Cuban Revolution it would have had to credit it in the first place.
In some eyes, Militant Labor can do no right and Capital can do no wrong. And the alternative of genuine Social Democracy (as it successfully exists in most of Western Continental Europe, Scandinavia, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Israel, etc.) is ignored entirely.
Are the vast majority of the Cuban People better off now than under the US-Mafia puppet Batista? Better go and ask them. That is if your silly country allows you to freely travel to the Island.
At least today’s Cubans aren’t starving, have healthcare and know how to read and write. Furthermore, according to the World Health Organization, their infant mortality rate is now lower than ( i.e. superior to) the US.
Throwing stones in a glass house isn’t very nice…It’s just plain ignorant!
