The Real Cuba

Next time you think about going to Cuba, remember what your feet are swinging over! It seems to me it's like going to an evil Disneyland done with the suffering of many constrained workers. When we fly there we have the fancy hotels, we have the fancy clinics, they run on this: http://www.therealcuba.com/Page10.htm and live here: http://www.therealcuba.com/page2.htm
With a difference, I met no one of the supporters of the Cuban regime who actually went there to live "as a Cuban", actually renouncing their citizenship and adopting the Cuban one, because it's a one way ticket.
We are the illiterate and ignorant ones and they have the 100% literacy. Would you like to be 100% literate under Mussolini or Stalin or Pol Pot? 100% literacy eh? What do you need it for? For instance, can you freely print a book with your ideas? NO. So, what in the world are we discussing about? I'm even ashamed of myself for having indulged into such an obvious topic. But I owe this to those, especially to all the ones who have died simply for thinking differently, and for ones, the balseros, who already knew they have one chance out of three to get to Florida alive but they tried it anyway.
They can kill you but they cannot kill your love for freedom.
