Also, for a higher overall standard of living or because they do not support the government there or they have relatives inthe U.S. Cuba has some of the best baseball teams and players as well, but just because they are some of the best does not mean that they will not try to leave for the United States where they can make a lot of money and live far higher on the hog, so to speak. Please do not attempt to make the case that because some Cuban doctors want to leave that island that it somehow implies that the Cuban medical system is some giant dysfunctional mess and a failure. Wealthy Americans routinely seek to move their assets offshore, out of the country, but that does not mean that the financial system of the United States is some abysmal failure.
