Cubans have suffering since the 1950s
Many Americans would be happy to help, but it is forbidden
They HAD TO HAVE CASTRO and communism. Now they re starving,.
What do you expect from an overpopulated island that has no resources to export? They rely on goods to be shipped in like many other island nations. Unsustainable and doomed to fail when the chain breaks.
Cuba is very similar to North korea. I was there 25 years, and life is hopeless for most people. No food, no jobs, can't buy enough suplies with you small salary. No freedom of expression. Totalitarian regimen and extremely racist. That's cuba.
Humain right what a big fat lies if there where to be respected it would be for Palestinians humain rights bogus American lies don’t believe anything comming from usa
remember that population control is not an issue. if you think it is you are part of problem. all these third world spawn can just move to the usa. we need more to drive up consumer prices and drive down wages; capitalism needs fodder. Fishbowls, the earth, islands, or especially a country…. can support endless people and life; there is no limit because we will just sci fi up new resources like jobs, metals, food, housing, etc. Population control and limits is a myth because the earth has endless amounts of everything from farmland to minerals; we can have at least 10040955 billion more people in the united states alone. So please send us your poor, hungry, worker cogs…america needs them.
total propaganda. here in america we don't need it because we love capitalism. i.e. when immigrants come and replace lazy americans (like these people and haitians etc will) we get more expensive consumer costs rent/food etc, and we get lower wages. Its a a win/win for capitalism!! We love our wage slavery here and we love paying for expensive rent and taxes on things we "own". We don't want a system where workers are valued or housing and land are a right; not our biggest expense. I want to pay lots of rent and taxes if i happen to own a home, and I want to work lots of hours; I'm a red blooded american.
Going hungry and cold in a socialist state? Impossible…
Pure communism is a failed concept that has been used as a vehicle to keep dictators in power
It’s time for countries to reject it as an economic/governing model
History has shown that a democratic, free market capitalist system tempered and regulated by social guardrails is the best model
These folks should immediately flood the southern border. Then go pitch tents on Bidens front lawn.
Two hours of power per day with all the power outages? Sounds like the dystopia California is headed.
Why has the US instituted such harsh sanctions on Cuba? This is outrageous since they trade and deal with other countries who have different ideology and system of governance
Propaganda has shaped so many people's views that this comment section truly just shows their ignorance. Uneducated and privileged.
they should have election Idont think U S wants to help the people the communist will just take the help in cash people should throw there leader the brother is 90s men to old some one is getting richer taking over . Been there this year men there life is stagnant internaL affair just a REASON PEOPLE RUNNING GOVT SHOULD QUIT. EVERN THE NEWS GUY CANT REALLY SAYWHAT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN BUT HE IS SCARED
Unbelievable
Go woke go brocke
Send US socialists there.
Hundreds ey?
USA is trying to destroy Cuba
Cuba has been fked for a long long time.
I heard communism is awesome. Have they/them been telling fibs?
These Cubans have to try something different, they have to protest at the government buildings so the world can see their anger.
final stage of socialism )) next stage is wild west capitalism))
Every 10 years USA do double pressures on all sanctions set up on Cuba and ALL the countries that do trades with Cuba do have to pay penalties !!!! so why they are hungry people in Cuba? not because Cuban government, as Cuban can not do nothing about it. The USA promised to easy the sanctions on Cuba after reopening the USA Embassy and work to build better relations with Cubans…..lets not forget it was a promise, and if You dont know what promise is please check it in dictionary, simply say USA fu….ed the Cubans again, so sad, so sorry, after all what is the Cuba in compare to USA world power Empire? USA should kept the promises given and act with good will it represents to poses, not shame and more shame. TH
This is Socialism and Collectivism for you. Oh, but it's not real Socialism, eh?
It took HOW long for these fruitcakes to realize…."Oh wow…this SUCKS!…". ^sigh^
It's coming to America, already here. We can't throw no stones.
All of this suffering stems from GREEDY corruption and the politicians that steal what isn't theirs. It is DISGUSTING. When when all is EVIL end.
Send then to the USA.
Ahh communist at it best LOL
I stand with the Cubans as a Russian living in America. Down with communism
😎Oh great! Another peaceful migration
Communism is a dismal failure.
IN CUBA THE CRISIS STARTED IN 1959 WHEN THE DEVIL FIDEL CASTRO TOOK POWER OF THE COMPLETE ISLAND.
Oh well they wanted communism well deal with it since 1959
If Americans were allowed, they would buy up every single house and parcel of land for vacation homes.
And how many Americans and Canadians want Communism in their country? Communism doesn't work, not because no one has done it right yet, but because Communism doesn't work period.
Do you ever wonder why illegals are always wearing Niki, is Niki supporting illegals?
LET US MIND OUR BUSINESS! WE HAVE SOOO MUCH PROBLEM AT HOME. HOMELESNESS AND INFLATION AND JUST IMAGINE WHAT WILL BE Happening when "Bricks" introduce its currency and abandon US dollar. Watch… our pride and our immorality will pushing us into the cliff and when we fall the whole world will laugh!
With Biden's open borders, they can come here for free handouts in sanctuary cities
WE'RE LIVING IN THE LAST DAYS AND END OF TIMES!….THIS IS HAPPENING THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, .CUBA, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, UNITED KINGDOM, JAPAN, CHINA, VARIOUS CARIBBEAN ISLANDS, .THE LIST GOES ON!…….EVEN UNITED STATES ON THE BRINK OF A DEPRESSION!…THE SAME WILL HAPPEN TO THE UNITED STATES CURRENCY!…
