What is worse? Cuba or North Korea?
Discuss?
I say North Korea far and away.
While Cuba lack democracy and fundamental human rights the over all living conditions of the populace from my research does not sound as bad as it is often made out to be in the US.
North Korea just sounds like hell on earth.

Forums dead to me because anything that involves actual debate is taken up by radical left wing and right wing idiots and pro-pan-arab apologists.
In other words, the COR actually has more reasonable debate than the people that just hang out in PDD.

While N. Korea is much more extreme, they are both fucked. Lacking basic necessities on a normal and regular basis, going hungry, barely surviving with almost no resources, etc. It is all just fucked.

What are your sources on that for Cuba?
I think that the view of Cuba in the US is vastly swayed against it because of the large and powerful exile community in southern Florida.
According to the UN, the average life expectancy in Cuba is the third highest in the Americas, behind Chile and Canada. The US is a close fourth.
Infant mortality rates are actually lower than they are in the US.
If they are struggling to get the basics how are these things true?

North Korea.
As far as I know, the Cuban population is not nearly as brain-washed.
North Korea looks like it's entire society is based on 1984.

How is healthcare and the basic necessities related?

If they were given a chance to trade with the US their over all standard of living would go up very quickly. They just need to be given that opportunity.
Any one that disagrees is only supporting a plan that only hurts the normal Cuban man women and child.

If people are living longer in Cuba than in the States, does that not indicate that, somehow, basic necessities are being met?
