Cuba still exists today and is ostensibly being run for the benefit of all workers.

Why don’t you go visit a Cuban state-run grocery store and tell me how much you’d enjoy living there?

Mentioning Cuba as a failed example while omitting that they have been embargoed by the biggest economy in the world for over 60 years seems willfully dishonest.

That argument worked 10 years ago, but not today that Cuba actually started to move towards capitalism and we really see that the embargo isn't such a hinderance as you argue it is.

I wouldn't want to live anywhere that the US has decided to economically decimate through sanctions and embargo.

The Democratic People's Republic Of Korea is ostensibly a democracy. Words are cheap, how much political power do the people actually have?

Crazy, who would've thought that a country being fully embargoed for 50+ years by the world's biggest economy might have difficulty obtaining goods?
