Also in Granma: "Since 1959, ten US administrations have not tired in repeating —for purposes of justification— that the economic, commercial and financial blockade against Cuba was and continues to be a reply by the US government to nationalization. These transfers of property were lawfully conducted following the triumphant revolution against the pervasive Yankee monopolies that had for decades drained the resources of the Cuban people. The economic war against this small island —history’s longest and most protracted of such kind of aggression— and qualified under international law as an act of genocide, is nothing else but the most cowardly expression of the US’s long-cherished dream of colonial domination of Cuba. This is the price we Cubans have been forced to pay for our steadfast determination to defend our sovereignty, our independence and our irreversible gains under socialism."
Has Cuba made any progress under socialism, or has it been all bad news?

No, you failed yourself. Stop being a victim. You should have fought for your own freedom, like the rest of the world. Your people in Cuba continue the struggle, while you live fat and happy in America. Take responsiblity for your fleeing the fight that your brothers are currently engaged in Cuba.
Have a nice day.
