They don't just have free Healthcare, they have one of the highest doctor to patient ratios in the world. It's amazing what they've accomplished despite how much they've been screwed by sanctions. Some dumb people point to Cuba as a failure of communism, but it's one of the greatest success stories if anything.

I've always wondered how Cuba would have been if it wasn't for the sanctions.
