Reckoned in isolation, then yes, it is. But consider that when health care becomes free at the same time it diminishes in quality, then both of those factors need to be weighed in the balance. Cuba was a regional, and even a world leader in medicine prior to Castro’s revolution, but Marxism effectively killed that edge, and not only stunted progress, but actually caused some retrogression. Before you say “embargo,” I’ll agree that the embargo has been a factor, but not the only one, and not the major one. Socialism underperforms research-wise as compared to free-markets, and Castro’s version of Marxism has an utterly paltry track record of medical achievement, apart from its single, admirable expansion of access. In short, health care for Cubans now is a larger piece of a much smaller pie than before.

@@cardinalRG Actaully capitalism is by far the inferior system when it comes to research. Under socialism all parties are free to share their work with each other, but under capitalism you have direct competition which demands double ups of research and often even 5 or 10 companies all trying to do the same research. It's pure wasted time and resources and even worse any breakthroughs are quickly patented to prevent anyone further developing those technologies. It's lust for competition makes capitalism by far the most inefficient and outright wasteful style of economy, which rewards artificial scarcity and punishes abundance with poverty. It's why the US has outrageous medical bills and why $3 of insulin can cost hundreds.

Despite the dictatorial tendencies that marred the rule of Fidel Castro l still feel that he was a better ruler than Batista. Notable areas of improvement where in education and health care.

Several PBS broadcast on the early years after the revolution Castro expressed his desire for normal political relations with the US. He stated he wanted freedom for the Cubans, and open elections and a democratic nation. When he was rebuffed he turned to the Soviet Union . The nation of Cuba could be a heaven on earth if not for the economic sanctions and the embargo., You failed to show how miserable the average Cubans lived before the revolution. Castro was a visionary and would have made great strides if not for the might of the US government. His human rights was no worse than 90% of countries in this world .

Mauricio, What a pity people living outside of Cuba give themselves to the task of repeating the words and ideas of a government that has been blaming "another" for its destruction and mismanagement for 60 years! Open your eyes! Please, do not repeat that the blockade is to blame for everything that happens in Cuba, NOO! In Cuba there is a blockade yes, but from the government itself to its people. Didn't they know!? It is the most logical, because from minute one, when Fidel Castro took power 63 years ago, he took on the task of confiscating: newspapers, magazines, television channels, radio stations, ministries and sectors of communications, culture, of education, of cinema, of the book... What came out, and comes out, of Cuba? Only praise and long live Fidel, "his" Revolution, the Communist Party and as many things as they need to strengthen in their favor to move international opinion to their side. On the contrary, what have they done to hide that they destroyed Cuba and that it is a war zone? Simple, with all the poison, manipulations and lies, they took on the task of looking for a credible enemy, to blame him for the collapse and destruction of a country that, when they took it, was one of the best economies in Latin America and of the world (look for information, please). Cuba has been and is, in the hands of criminals who have sucked its wealth to live as big capitalists, do millionaire deals with other nations, and subjugate the people through indoctrination, fear, abuse... and hunger, needs and misery as weapons of social control.

I find it interesting that Castro thought Puerto Rico was being prevented from gaining statehood. They've constantly chosen not to become a state.

You may want to educate yourself more on the conditions of the poorer Cubans who were being exploited by the US based mafia along with all the other US corporations that were courted by a corrupt, greedy, and murderous Batista regime.. Batista took over quarter of a billion dollars which he stole from the country when he left to Don Rep. There is a more in depth documentary on that era in Cuba history also on KZbin, titled "How Fidel Castro Came to Power - Secrets of War" on the Timeline Documentary channel. This one offers greater insight into the struggles of the country that led to its nationalist political agenda, of which Castro became the most prominent proponent..

@@nemesiomercado7948 I think we should have a high standard in judging our world leaders. I can't think much of anything positive about his administration. His economic measures created instability that is still felt today, he lied about his military service to get elected, he was brutal against any opposition. We can forgive mistakes, but it is quite obvious that he was only for self. And when shit hit the fan, did he stay and try to help the people? No, he was granted safe passage to live in Hawaii. Many Filipinos lost their life and land, but it seems his family made out really well. So humbly I say to you, "No, this person does not deserve such a title as 'world's best president'.

Castro was a nationalist patriot who Liberated the Cuban people from an oppressive dictatorial regime. American administration since 1959 acted criminally against Castro and Cupa's people through several coup d'etat attempts as well as by imposing sanctions on Cupa's population to create chaos and famine that will lead to the people revolting but the people did not do that but they protected their country Cupa through to protect revolotion leader Castro and his comrades. the people are aware that without Castro's revolution, Cupa would have been a colony and a big brothel for Americans.

They have indoctrinated their own population with forced education of their own views, yet their own population prefers to leave and immigrate to any available country, besides their own..? Please don't comment on this unless you have actually live under this regime. It's obvious that the Cuban people want change. Even the hierarchy of the Cuban Government have defected throughout the decades... Fidel's own family live in the United States. Have you ever even asked yourself, why that is..?

I went to Cuba when Castro was still alive as it was on my bucket list for when I finished university. I was disillusioned a little by the desperation of the average Cuban. Some wanted me to post letters for them, quite a few tried to con me but mostly they were very nice. Having said that, I've never quite been anywhere before where the citizens so clearly watch what they say. Bars in England (and elsewhere) have many locals cussing politicians but I don't think they'd dare in Cuba. A mate of mine had gone before and just said "whatever you do, don't wear a Che Guevara shirt!". Most people there do not have time for the naive idealism of people whom also enjoy the benefits of freedoms they did not have. Castro had a mixed legacy, and the Cuba I saw was similarly a mixed bag. Castro was such a big part of Cuban history but I felt that communism (a least the Cuban version) clearly wasn't working because human nature doesn't work that way. Whilst I felt a bit guilty being an affluent tourist there, I did see a certain level of greed, envy and con artistry amongst some of the citizens. Some were absolutely delightful though, and its them I remember most fondly.

The biggest mistake the United States made with Cuba was sanctions. As is always the case around the world, America's sanctions only hurt children, mothers, working men and retirees. Sanctions destroy culture and the arts. They do nothing to harm or deter those in power. Cuba's communism would have failed just as it did in Russia if modern appliances, modern cars, iPhones and all of the modern material goods had been allowed for distribution and purchase.
