I'm saying that it is quite possible to have free health care and education without socialism. (Canada, Europe) And we already have free education in the United States up until the 12th grade. And state schools/community colleges are quite affordable with decent grades in high school. Not free yet...but maybe someday.
So THAT'S where I'm saying your wrong. You were implying the only way Cuba can have free healthcare is because it's communist. Cuba could transition out of communism and keep their free healthcare and education. In fact, that would probably be the easier option, since privatizing the two would be enormously complicated and chaotic.
Sorry for the disconnect.
