Cuba:

What were you guys saying about socialism never working? btw...
Meanwhile in grorious Capitalism:
>people being poisoned by their water because it was less expensive to inspect the plumbing systems
>Total economic meltdown is considered "normal" and it's also "normal" to steal money from working families to bail out banks
>The only way a corporation can survive in today's economy is by enslaving children in foreign countries.
>The collapses are getting worse every year
>Millions are dying, starving, and homeless
>Millions are also uneducated
>These same uneducated people consider this literally deadly economic system to be "freedom" and continue to vote for oligarchs that will make things worse
>mfw /pol/ will defend this
>mfw Lolbertarians think this is good and want more of this
>mfw Ancaps want even more of this
>Cuba
>no poverty

Please continue to damage control, I'm awaiting your well-thought out response.

they are poor but the rest are true

The problems you listed are not the result of the capitalist system, but the free market system and our governments slavery to multinational corporations

err.. yeah. so what's your solution for that again? force corporations to operate within state borders? like nationalize corporations? because that sounds a little bit like s o c i a l i s m

Stay mad righty, when the bourgeois falls we'll be sure to hang you with your highest quality rope :^)

Feel free to move there then instead of bitching about your own country
>>73506730
This is total bullshit, if it weren't we wouldn't have so many Cubans here in Florida.
>>73506730
Average month the pay is $20
wow so great

Poverty, yes, but no homelessness or starvation.
Also, illiteracy have been almost eradicated over there.
>>73508661
>>73508751
If more countries became socialist then neither of those things would be problems.
>>73508828
completely eradicated as a matter of fact.
There is not a single Cuban adult that can't read.
>>73508469
that why cuba is so great even with soviet help during cold war comrade juan?
>>73508751
it doesnt matter how much he gets, but how much he can get with that
>>73506730
i work with cubans and they had to escape that shithole because their government stole their stores and put them in jail for making money fuck off commie
That's because they are so little of them thanks to abortions.
>>73509368
>Going to jail for doing something illegal
yes, capitalism is illegal in cuba.
>they "had" to "escape"
they didn't HAVE to do anything. they could have easily survived and had a good life in cuba.
>>73509573
The United State's poor is another world from Cuba's poor. The working class in Cuba live worse than a welfare leech in the United State's.
A "poor" American has more food, faster access to medical care, nicer quality housing, and more updated appliances and electronics.
>>73506730
Ofcourse, if you equally fuck everyone and then imbue people with the lie that everyone being equally fucked is good you will have a supercountry, just like north korea
Oh, but by the way, don't you dare say that you could be better if the state didn't kept you from growing because you go straight into jail, or in worst case scenario you get executed.
Equal distribution of misery is not prosperity.
Btw, Cuba:
>no hunger
Yeah, giving you low quality food kills hunger, but that doesn't mean that the food they give you is good for you.
>no poverty
If everyone is poor virtually nobody is amirite.
>no homelessnes
No good homes also
>no illiteracy
That's virtually impossible, and a propagandist lie
>socialist for almost 60 years now
Take a look at cuba before being socialist and then compare, i think everybody likes much more the before than the after.
P.S. If you love cuba so much, then why don't you just move there and shitpost from cuba, at least you would sound more credible
>>73506730
The only cuban i ever meet, told me Cuba was like a jail and he will never go back.
Only true in recent years, in the late 80s early to mid 90s they were eating grass and starving to death before they learned how to wean themselves off having the Soviet Union to prop them up
>>73507777
Oh nice quads
>>73508922

>>73506730

So all those Cubans risking their lives to get to Florida on rubber dinghies were trying to escape what again?
>>73509573

Holy shit lookit that!

They were smart to boot the Americans out, they just had to look around them to see what would happen if they didn't. Them Castro boys have outlasted an awful lot of US presidents.
>>73508604
>>73508751
I earn quite a bit of $ and can barely survive here, so your argument is obviously fucking stupid. Dollar value is relative to what you can actually buy with it.

You are thinking of illegal Mexicans, and half the adults in your major cities, burger.
Cuba is a lovely place full of interesting history to go along with it. Sure there are some poor people around Havana, but there's tramps in pretty much every city. Plus, the beautiful & classical cars are amazing.
Honestly, communism has done more good than bad, for example it's pretty impressive to be able to get to University for free after two years of service in the military.
>>73510575
>average American
>better healthcare
Check your facts and try again. Cuba has an excellent medical system and very well trained docs. Everyone there has access to it.
>>73506730
Have you ever been to Cuba tho?
It's a shithole of a country.
>>73506730
Are you really ready to earn 20 bucks a month so that some worthless loosers can have free food and shelter?
>>73514302
Wasn't Germany like that for a while?
>>73514399
You talking about East Germany? Or Germany just a couple of years ago?
>>73514061
Haha, ya I know. Despite South Park though, I've never heard anyone ever say "aboot"
Doesn't everyone live in shacks in Cuba, though?
Just because a country is filled with intelligent people doesn't make it inherelently good. Countries ran by intellectuals have historically gone to shit.
>>73513243
I don't agree with OP but I think they were escaping the revolution
>>73514780
Idk if hitler counts as an "intellectual"
>>73510911
thankyou based el salvadore
>>73514483
Just a couple years ago. A German exchange student was talking about how he had to serve two years in the German military
>>73514510
Trailer Park Boys?
>>73506730
Have you tried venturing outside your cuban turist resort? You'll understand why they risk their lives to get out of this shithole.
>>73506730
Then why do people risk their lives while taking leaky boats to Florida?
leftypol you're really going off the deep end now
cubans can barely eat, cars from the 50s are considered a luxury and about 50 cubans have access to Internet
>>73507174
I've lived in Cuba?
>>73515317
Dunno, that's an East Coast thing. The setting for that show is over 3500 miles from me. Different world.
>>73508865
Yeah you're right, if the US was a dirt poor socialist country people wouldn't flee their dirt poor socialist countries to come here.
>>73506730
Theres 4 thousand cubans stuck in the border with costa rica here, all fleeing their shit island to get to usa. Kill yourself
>>73506730
It's so great there, that people use home made rafts to escape it.
Why don't you move there, we wouldn't have to listen to your whining then
Oh I see, socialism is so great that Cubans are awaiting their chance to ask for asylum when they ditch their sports teams whenever they come to America. Don't say shit out of your ass when I beaver lived under this fucking shithole of socialism.
>>73506730
Your lack of understanding communist countries is astonishing.
All of the problems you listed with capitalism are created by the government.
>>73514344
Actually, you are the ignorant one. A person on welfare in the US receives by far, superior health care, with faster access. And if that is the only cunt hair, (that you failed to split) you failed your whole argument as poverty in the US as a whole, compared to the impoverished in Cuba as a whole.
Everyone in the US also has access to emergency care, even without coverage.
One fact, you won't like Canuck, is that before Obama rekted the healthcare system here...many Canadians received higher quality, faster access to treatment by crossing the border here to the US.
>>73506730
The Cuban government seizes your own property when you do to well for yourself. That is literally tyranny.
You know, I dont think Ive ever seen a Cuban flag poster before. Ive seen the crazy ones like the moonbase and islands with only a population of 12 people, but never Cuba.
Is it even possible for Cubans to post here?
>>73516882
Canadian health care blows, the average moron here loves government shlong.
Socialism is flawed since people always want more. The state can fill some basic needs like food, health and education, like in Cuba, but there will come a time when you'll want a burger, a boob-job or learn about postmodernist poetry. Freedom a best.

Trust me, if the US identified "Literacy" as being able to sign your name, we'd have a perfect literacy rate too.
>>73506730
Well, Cuba is surely A LOT better than similar small and relatively poor (in land, resources etc.) countries.
But planned economies/socialism etc. is only better for non-Imperialistic countries. And it can easily fail, look at North-Korea which turned Feudal.
>>73506730
have you ever even been to cuba?
>>73509085
Hey if the USA is so great then why did they need the help of communist Russia to defeat Germany?
>>73506730
Cuba is a fucking shithole and the only reason people survive is because they do illegal private deals on the side. The only damn reason that the island isn't just a pile of skellingtons is due to the fact that capitalism is practiced illegally and in the dark.
>>73506730
Hmm, according to the World Bank they are nr. 57 in the world (GDP per capita) in 2013 (having a decent growth every year before).
They have higher GDP (per capita) than several naturally richer European countries.
>>73517314
>postmodernist poetry
Like Miley Cyrus poems?
>>73507174
You need to first provide a well thought-out statement, m8. Using le ebin imblying arrows won't convince anyone of anything except that you're a shill paid for by Hillary Clinton to "deradicalize" this board.
>>73506730
How could we forget the world power that is Cuba.
>>73506730
Dude, I walked through small towns and larger cities in cuba.. its fucking disgusting and everyone looks sick.
They live in shacks, and dont have basic medicine.
>>73506730
>>no hunger
>>no poverty
>>no homelessness
>>no illiteracy
Have you ever been to Cuba? It has all of that plus Herpes.
