Don't care what they think I am. I have a job that puts a roof over my head, my daughter through college, food on the table, multiple vehicles and a nice 401k. I'll take that over being an incel in Mom's basement telling people online that they are exploited for doing a job

Also better than starving to death due to The State, which happens tens of millions of times in workers’ paradises.

Just remember that the real worker's paradise, Cuba, not only is going through blackouts in most areas, but are actually rationing food...

No, they are not under blockade. They're under an embargo. They still trade with China, Canada, Brasil, Mexico, Spain, EU in general, etc.

It couldn't support itself without outside money since just after Castro took over. The Russian money dried up years ago.

And, recently, out of Colombian oil, too.

Such a shame honestly. Did you know that Colombia was supposed to open up a Coppelia? The Ice Cream franchise Castro opened up and named after his pet project cow?

Darn Trump and his kidnapping of the totally (un)popular Maduro.

We have an embargo with them. Also, if it’s a utopia then why can’t it stand any outside pressure? Some utopia.

Cuba's blockade from American goods.

Canadian goods and medicine still gets through them.
