Hasn't performed lots. to truly see what 50 years can do, head for Detroit Michigan. you will see how electing liberal Democrats can shrink a as quickly as wealthy city to the status of a third international ghetto. BS. I grew up there. That racist mayor (an early version of Obama) used classification conflict and identity politics to chase whites and companies from the city. while he replaced into performed doing that, he went after the wealthy blacks who additionally fled the city. Then the friendly citizens of the city desperate that empty properties, the biggest source of city income from assets taxes, have been greater helpful off being vandalized and set on fireplace. And his tax tests have been the main important reason that folk deserted their properties. He replaced into sending tax charges gaining access to $14,000.00 properties at $60,000.00. It replaced into greater inexpensive for those vendors to end paying the valuables tax because of the fact it took the city 4 or 5 years to evict them. Why could everyone of their precise concepts pay $10,000.00 over a 5 3 hundred and sixty 5 days era in assets taxes on a house that replaced into fairly worth $15,000.00. And his a million% payroll tax facilitated the departure of many companies from the city. Coleman youthful, basically like Obama, attacked companies as evil. And basically like Detroit, important firms are going to relocate their headquarters to a greater tax friendly u . s . a . particularly then placed up together with his infantile stupidity.

I have heard that you can, but votes are recorded and if you're not a party member (i.e. you didn't vote for Castro) you don't get food rations, medical care, a job, or whatever. Life becomes extremely difficult for you.
So as I understand it, he usually wins with more than 99% of the vote.
It's a sham.

What does it matter?
Castro,if he's even still alive,will be dead soon.
I doubt the Communist Party will outlast him by much.
And besides,no matter what the Cubans in Miami think,after the Soviets fell,Castro became about as relevant to U.S. foreign policy as what I had for lunch yesterday.
In other words,it just does't matter.

Castro will get over 90% of the vote.
He is the "Democrats' Dream".

Sure, anybody can. How's your Spanish? Can you shout "Vamos a derribar al tirano!" If you can, swim to Cuba and take a shot at it. There aren't enough funny news on TV these days.

probably not...but there is a 600+ National Legislature and they do have elections. They are all in the communist party, but they do have elections.
