Lizzie, one of the most amazing things about America's economic policies is that for the past 50 years South and Latin America have supposedly benefited from its association with America, unlike Cuba.
But if you do a statistical comparison as to employment, infant mortality, health care, number of televisions, number of radios, number of Internet hook-ups, etc., one would find Cuba doing better than those South and Latin American countries that supposedly have had 50 years of US economic development. I have a reference for this, but unfortunately I don't have time now to find it.
By the way, the Vermont senators are Jeffords (once a Republican, now an Independent) and Leahy, a Democrat. The sole US representative of Vermont is Bernie Sanders, a Socialist, and the only one in the US House. |
