Because the glitzyness of a city is clearly an indication of well off the people are.

Does anyone see anything wrong with Havana? It actually looks like a really nice place. 

FFS no it doesn’t. It looks like a ghetto. The image is even enlarged on your own damn blog so quit lying to yourself.

Better picture:

But for the sake of argument, countries with more economic freedom, that is to say: property rights, freedom of contract, rule of law etc., enjoy the best standards of living in the world. They have better access to healthcare, longer life expectancy, higher reported happiness, less child labor, less governmental corruption, higher wages, and lower cost of living.

Any economics class would tell you that markets are better at organizing and allocating resources. At least way better than the alternative: central, top down planning.

Evilteabagger said everything I wanted to say. I was just too fucking lazy to write it all out.
