CNN Infomercial on Cuban Health Care - Toilet Paper Shortages Prove Otherwise

by the Left Coast Rebel

What kind of times are we living in? Where do these folks in the press come from? How could anyone possibly think that communism, ie. security over liberty is a viable option? How could anyone in the press with even a modicum of access to information think that the Cuban model of health care, freedom, or otherwise is something worthy of praise? Imagine that they source Michael Moore as well....

From the video, truth is stranger than fiction -


"What are they doing right? (In Sicko), Cuban supporters gleefully pointed out that the poor communist island gave it's people universal health care, something the United States doesn't do.....how does health care in Cuba work? There are some impressive statistics. Cuba's life expectancy is the highest in Latin America! (Really? I am skeptical as this is a stat from the W.H.O. but if it is true, so what? Cubans are slaves of an oppressive regime, would you like to live as a slave to a ripe old age?)

(The 'report' then goes to a new 'clinic') - "Built just 5 years ago, this clinic is a symbol of what Cuba wants to do with health care....the machinery is new...all of it free of charge! How does Cuba do it? First of all the government dictates salaries, (wow, Pelosi, Obama, GM? Banks?), doctors earn less than $30 per month, (talk about attracting the best and brightest), priority is given to avoiding expensive procedures.....(cat out of the bag, whoops)


Ok, I'm going to stop there. The cat is out of the bag. Priority is given to avoiding expensive procedures. Aside from the laughable manner in which CNN panders to communism, this little line, this admission is the whole enchilada of the debate over Obamacare. Remember that, priority is given to avoiding expensive procedures.

So on this note, priority over what? A human life? Human dignity? Bureaucratic bean-counting over individual initiative?

Exactly, all of the above in a nutshell, thank you CNN for topping every bit of communist-media-peddling nonsense I have ever seen in my political life - all in one little segment.


And speaking of Cuba, communism, oppression, the US media, collectivism sold with a silver tongue, I found this story, it actually led me to the CNN story.


Investor's Business Daily August 12 here - How End-Users Suffer Under Socialism


Central planners announced this week that they were fresh out of money to buy toilet paper — yes, toilet paper — for the island's 9 million citizens. But not to worry. A nameless official for state-run monopoly Cimex and quoted by Reuters assured that "the corporation has taken all the steps so that at the end of the year there will be an important importation of toilet paper."


There's no gas, either. The Associated Press this week reported that state planners have decreed that oxen — yes, oxen — would replace tractors in the fields, a bid to conserve fuel. This, despite the fact that Cuba gets 100,000 barrels of oil a day from Hugo Chavez's Venezuela — effectively free, because Cuba never pays its bills.

But again, not to worry: Cuban socialists say the ox represents progress because it's so eco-friendly.......

No toilet paper for the people, oxen to save the environment. Now that is the model that America should aspire to. How fitting, an analogy of our Constitution being shredded daily, toilet paper for the Capitol and White House. Paganistic worship of the environment for the God-less, hatred of man's mind and his ability to freely choose by his own volition.




CNN? Obamanation?
