15. I live in Miami and I know several doctors who have defected from Cuba
So I'm not sure where you are gathering your information.

And I didn't realize we were arguing about American policy when it comes to dealing with Cubans. I thought we were taking a poll on whom we preferred to live under; either Bush or Castro.

If you prefer to live in a communist society where freedom of expression is not tolerated nor is freedom to choose a candidate from a different party; a society that has bowed down to the same leader for almost 50 years; a society that does not allow you to leave the country at free will; a society where even the most educated and talented make only enough for sheer basic necessities; a society that does not allow the importation of foreign publications (and please don't mention the embargo because I'm talking about all world publications); a society that does not allow its students to access the internet(if you're a foreign student, you're allowed); a society that does not permit its people to enter its hotels unless they have a job there ...

then knock yourself out. You are about as free-spirited as a fucking robot.

Me, I prefer a society that although it's not the most perfect society, I still have the freedom to try and change it.
