You are on another planet. The USSR collapsed, east Germany collapsed, Cuba is a joke, China is capitalist, you are living in fairy land.
The government may support a lot of research but the government’s tax base derives from entrepreneurs who create a healthy free market. No socialist utopia exists and you live in a good society because of economic freedom. None of this is news to most people, and me telling you this I guarantee will make no difference to you given how brainwashed you seem to be.
Nothing is stopping you from moving to Cuba. Good luck!

- seibelj 7y agoThat’s a debatable point but the fundamental economic structure of society is sound. Free market capitalism won, wins, and will continue to win. But like I said - Venezuela and Cuba are hurting a lot. They need good comrades to help them. Please emigrate there and help fix their societies by donating your labor and knowledge. I just don’t understand why more people don’t move there to help! You seem like an ideological comrade that could help them, please go there quickly.
- geofft 7y agoAh, but I'm already helping them. The biggest reason they're hurting is America has spent almost an entire century using government funds to prevent other countries from becoming communist and to prevent communist countries from being successful. If I can win hearts and minds in America and make us stop doing that, then that solves the underlying problem and not just the symptom.
