You’re being dishonest and obtuse on purpose here.
Even Cuba has better access to education and health-care and shelter than in it US. Every other challenges they’re facing is because of the US and their sanctions.

Every other challenge? Are you sure? Seems mighty convenient.

With how the U.S. has been apply economic sanctions against Cuba since the 60’s it’s pretty obvious. Anybody who’s been doing trade with the U.S. has been forbidden to doing any trade with Cuba. Their only economic partners have been Russia, China and Venezuela.
More recently, Venezuela was the only supplier of oil to Cuba, and now the U.S. attacked Venezuela and gained control of their oil, and stopped al shipping to Cuba. Because of this, Cuba can’t even produce electricity because their power stations ran on oil.

I’m not saying the US had no effect, but it’s mighty convenient that you’re able to claim that every challenge Cuba has faced is due to the US, not due to mismanagement by the authoritarian Cuban government.
