And in the USA children are taken away from their parents if they catch them giving them a spanking, let alone catch them trying to instill some work ethics in their kids. In the US a kid and sell papers or cookies or any other corporate crap their schools make them sell that's about it. But children are taken from their parents in the USA over nothing all the time.

Well the fact that you used the terrible grammar on a board where the majority of people are educated in the USA as a slanderous comparison of the educational standards of those in Cuba just shows how bad your own critical thinking skills are.

You can't insult grammar taught in America and use it as a means to insult that of Cuba's in an attempt to demonstrate the terrible standards of socialist education. That makes no sense.

Well I can only Hope you did not have to whore your body out to pay for that education like many people in the USA do every day. Hey but at least the don't have to work for 45 days as a child.

A lot of people ridicule Castro but I have for many years now thought that he is actually very much in the know. He is portrayed a lot of the time as a lunatic and I feel they do this because he is actually hitting the proverbial nail on the head when it comes to exposing the real truth.
Castro is trying to tell us something I think.

I posted this in another thread but I think it will make sense here too;
"Good ole sanctions can't beat them for softening up a target. This will obviously end in disaster.
Russian's have complained to the UN today about German intervention on board a Russian vessel headed for Iran. The ship in question was delivering computer equipment for Iran's Bushehr nuclear plant the legality of which was never in question.
You can easily see something going wrong, even a simple miscommunication or someone using heavy handed tactics while on board inspecting cargo, could lead to all out war."

Castro has nothing to gain by lying.

"It may be allowed under Security Council resolutions, but it's not allowed under EU rules," a European diplomat told Reuters. "Perhaps Russia wasn't aware of it."

So would I.
So strange we see these so called "Insane dictators" trying to warn or prepare their people for the upcoming war. A war we on ATS know is coming.
But our own leaders totally deny anything and have done nothing to get us ready.
Do they even care about us down here, trying to work and pay off things barely making it from week to week? Do they even know what will happen to us because they haven't prepared us?
I am neither a prophet nor a fortune teller. Nobody told me a word of what was to happen. It has all been the result of what I today describe as a logical reasoning.
We are neither new to this complicated issue nor are we meddlesome.
It is possible to predict what will happen in the rest of the Portuguese and Spanish speaking Americas during the nuclear post crisis.
Under such circumstances, it will not be possible to talk of capitalism or socialism. A stage will open that will see the management of the available goods and services in this part of the continent. Certainly, every country will continue being ruled by those who head the governments today, some very close to socialism and others euphoric over the opening of the world market to fuels, uranium, copper, lithium, aluminum, iron and other metals being sent to the developed and rich countries today that will suddenly disappear.
An abundance of food exported now to that world market will also disappear abruptly.
In these circumstances, the most basic products needed for life: food, water, fuels, and the resources found in the hemisphere south of the United States will suffice to preserve some of the civilization whose unbridled advance has led humanity into such a disaster.
Nevertheless, there are still some uncertainties.

Why is it I have to look to Ahmadinejad or Castro or Chavez to actually hear a leader speak sense?
It's not like Gillard or Cameron or Obama doesn't know this stuff. What are they doing? Nothing.
