    The narrative that socialism has always failed is also wrong, too. Cuba is doing far better than they would have for its people had it remained a sugar colony. China is quickly advancing to the top of the world stage. Socialism does work, despite siege, even if it would do better without it.

    Their scientists also developed a very potent cure for Alzheimers disease named NeuralCIM. Dr. Bill Blanchet, a US doctor is helping US patients to get treatment in Cuba. AFAIK the only western country doing a clinical trial with it is Canada.

    Right now the genocidal blockade is preventing vital cancer-treating medicine from entering Cuba, so while Cuba does have numerous advantages over the US even with its imperialism, right now the people are being starved and cut off of vital necessities.
