Did you read that link you posted? Lmao

If you get past the first paragraph, suddenly there's really no praising and they talk about how bad health care is in Cuba and how many try to defect as they are forced into horrible conditions.

From that article:

"He said, “We were placed in slums with a high level of violence, under constant monitoring by the Bolivarian brigades [political police], who are supposed to offer protection but also report any suspicious activities and assure that we carry out our `revolutionary' duty, indoctrinating our patients to vote for Chávez. If we refuse to do so we are sent back to Cuba.”"
