You brought up the excuse of Cuba's poverty without acknowledging that communism made that poverty much worse. Cuba has the strongest healthcare systems among countries in its economic strata. What are you comparing it to ... North Korea? And what makes you think you can believe any of their government statistics ... things like longevity, etc? These statistics come from the World Health Organization. Oh, give me a break. You the WHO gets its stats from the Cuban government. You think the WHO maintains some giant bureaucracy in Cuba to measure it's health outcomes? Don't be such a gruber. Cuba has a terrible regime. But we weren't talking about this. You made a ridiculous blanket statement about Cuba's healthcare system. There are many positive things to be said about it. How would you know? I say there's just communist propaganda for pro-communist liberals to swallow like babies swallow their baby food. Cuba does have a separate clinics for the elite and wealthy foreigners, but ordinary Cubans are barred from those.
