Freedom Bashing Bernie Sanders is clueless about the Cuban Economy, Try starting a business in Cuba and learn how incompetent the Cuban government is, the U.S has an embargo on China – July 13, 2021,
The U.S has an embargo on China, this hasn’t stopped China from growing, The U.S can’t stop business people from doing business with China, nor can the U.S government stop American consumers from purchasing Chinese-made goods.
Bernie Sanders is an idiot, I’d like to first bring to the attention of the reader that the U.S has embargos on a list of countries, and countries like Venezuela as an example only became poor because of their socialist policies. Had Hugo Chavez not nationalized private industries which basically sent private businesspeople fleeing from Venezuela.
Venezuela would not be in the state it’s in now with or without U.S Sanctions, the same is true for Iran. It’s the stupidity of the Iranian government why Iran struggles economically, many European nations still trade with Iran, the issue is how the Iranian government WASTES the money.
To really bring my argument home, The United States has an embargo on Communist China, but currently, China rivals the U.S economically? So when reading the tweet below, I want you to understand how ignorant Bernie Sanders is.
All people have the right to protest and to live in a democratic society. I call on the Cuban government to respect opposition rights and refrain from violence. It’s also long past time to end the unilateral U.S. embargo on Cuba, which has only hurt, not helped, the Cuban people.

For the record below is an excerpt of some of the countries the various levels of the U.S government have embargoes against.
Treasury Department, the Commerce Department, and the State Department list embargoes against 29 countries or territories: Afghanistan, Belarus, Burundi, Central African Republic, China (PR), Côte d’Ivoire, Crimea Region, Cuba, Cyprus, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Iraq, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Myanmar, North Korea, Palestinian Territories, Russia, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela, Yemen, Zimbabwe.
Now I highlighted some of the countries above because those countries were rich until the people voted for socialism. Venezuela opted for Democratic socialism, Zimbabwe embraced National socialism basically stripping white farmers of their property, Iran embraced Communism and China is also communist, what separates China from Cuba is that China has “Free market” zones, it would surprise some people to learn that Venezuela even has free-market zones, Cuba, on the other hand, has no free market zones, hates corporations, and anyone dumb enough to do business in Cuba should consider their business NATIONALIZED
Canadians are free to go to Cuba and even start businesses there, why don’t we? Consider reading the Cuban government’s rules and regulations on operating a business in Cuba, these rules are even available on the Internet for free, don’t trust me go read them for yourself.
The Cuban government believes that anything that could compromise their socialist revolution should be banned, so freedom in Cuba is banned for the sake of the Cuban revolution. Anyone who reads Karl Marx knows that Marx predicted that democracy or democratic socialism would eventually lead to COMMUNISM! This is one of the reasons most people call Bernie Sanders a Communist.
The Cuban revolution initially was supposed to be a socialist revolution, but what happened was it came to Fidel Castro’s attention that freedom, free markets, a market economy, corporations, property rights, and democracy could all compromise the Cuban revolution.
You see democratic socialists might vote for a capitalist to rule the country, democracy, a true democracy can swing all sorts of ways, this is why even the U.S.S.R dissolved into communism. The U.S.S.R stands for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics Do you see a trend here? Anytime socialism comes into existence, it tends to dissolve into some form of authoritarianism The ruling classes become too insecure to give the people their democracy back in fears the ruling class will lose control.
In easy-to-understand terms, socialists rulers are usually INSECURE! which is why they want to limit and control the freedoms of their SUBJECTS! I have to remind readers that Bernie Sanders spent his youth as an activist and then went into politics, Bernie Sanders has little to no practical experience in the private sector, which is why Bernie Sanders assumes that big government knows what’s best for the economy.
