I have a lot of respect for Castro. He started a revolution when he was 26 and brought independence from foreign occupation to his country. Cuba provided education and free health care for its people despite struggling because of the US imposed embargo which was cruel and inhumane. Castro was far from perfect, he was a bit of a playboy, repressed journalism and did crack down on dissidents, but he clearly loved his country, did a lot of good, and Cuba has done a lot for other poor countries.

It's funny how Donald Trump has such harsh words for Castro. If we apply the 'Clinton standard', he will be saying he was a nice guy this time next week and that he has been through enough. Castro is an inspiration and in some ways the US could learn from Cuba. The US health care industry is all about profit and it should never be about profit.
