Are you serious? Castro wiped out the opposition, imprisoned and executed dissidents, put homosexuals into reeducation camps, drove tens of thousands of residents to flee to the US each year, halted freedom of the press, and stayed in power until his death and then passed leadership to his brother through real democracy?

Respectfully, don't let your completely understandable hatred for capitalism blind you to flaws in alternatives. Cuba is not a model to pursue, it is at best equal to what the US and Europe have now.
