    If his ill health permits, in less than two years' time Cuba's Fidel Castro will celebrate half a century of communism in his tiny Caribbean island nation of Cuba, but with the 80-year-old leader still looking pretty frail like Cuba's economy, many are asking whether his stubborn Marxist revolution will survive his inevitable passing.
    “He created a totalitarian state that has absolutely nothing to do with Socialist ideals”, claims dissident Oscar Chepe. “What we have is state capitalism run by a group that controls everything”. Cubans are effectively forbidden from owning their own businesses and cannot access the internet or stay in the country’s hotels. But not all Cubans are disaffected. Castro has enlisted 40,000 ‘trabajadores sociales’ to ensure the future of the revolution. Today, they’re replacing energy-inefficient fridges. “It’s the new revolution - an energy revolution”, explains one girl.

    Yeah, "you must live here to see what the reality really is in Cuba". He means, the life for the "standard Cubans" (I would like to know who are the "privileged Cubans") citizens is quite hard, tough, harsh and painful. Sublimely the Australian lady's groom is considering himself a "regular cuban". He is a young man who lives without the necessity to work. He doesn't need to get up early in the morning to go every weekday to spend 8 hours on a line production factory, administrative office, or work in some primary production on the agricultural field. In the context of First World countries, his personal situation is considered as entitled to privileged people, the well off ones. In Australia as well as in USA, Canada, western Europe, you could stay out of work for a very limited period of time, after that period, you become a homeless, sleep on the streets or in filthy shelters and eat in a soup kitchen charity organization. Who knows, life gets many unexpected loops, and we could find that Cuban guy today, as a hard worker family oriented man, supporting his Australian wife and 4 kids, in Melbourne, Canberra or Sidney.

      That's quite a diatribe. The privileged Cubans are a higher class than the ordinary Cubans. You'd know this basic fact if you knew the subject matter.

      ..
      No hope in going to the past come to the loving savior today
      Seek his Holy Spirit in prayer today he can give you peace confort and guidance today
      Romans 6:23
      For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
      Come to Jesus Christ today
      Jesus Christ is only way to heaven
      Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void
      Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today
      Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today
      John 3:16-21
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
      Mark 1.15
      15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
      2 Peter 3:9
      The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
      Hebrews 11:6
      6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
      Jesus

      You call him a liar without a reason.
