49. So Castro is not a dictator
The people all love him there (of course that may have to do with the fact that anybody they talk to can be a government spy).

And they have complete freedom of speech (sure, as long as it is expressed in the state-run press).

You're the one that needs to get your facts straight.

"This, along with my claim that there is freedom of speech, is backed up by people who have traveled there."

So you've talked to people who have traveled there? So have I. My Colombian uncle honeymooned there. I have several friends that have been there.

The average Cuban person is not allowed in the luxurious hotels unless they work there.

What are you, a teenager?
