No Rambi, I am afraid that you are "brainwashed" in your own way, and my statement was not "innacurate".
For your information, I had friends in the projects, and many of them got out and moved on to better things. Yes, of course there are some that never made it out of their ghetto neighborhoods, just as there are some that never made it out of their lower middle class neighborhoods. No "man-made" system on this earth is perfect, but America has been the land of relative freedom and opportunity for quite some time now, and you simply cannot compare it to Castro's brutal dictatorship no matter how much you may try. And even the "poorest of our poor" in big city ghettos, are much better off than the poor in Cuba, as bad as our "underbelly" is.....
Remember that some people simply cannot take "the shackles" of freedom, and only want so-called "security", at the cost of everyone else's freedom and free will of course. Yogi
