70. Yep
all things considered. Like the evil big neighbour of Cuba doing its damndest to fuck things up for Cubans. And all you've succeeded is making Cuba stronger. I'd say that is one fucking big success, just to survive against US (look at Haiti that has not survived against US). Not to mention healthcare, education, organic agriculture and communal spirit. So what measures, in your opinion, should be used for comparison?

Given the choise between Cuba and US to live in, I would choose Cuba without hesitation, but hey, each to his tastes.
