Go to bed, or the neoliberal is coming to eat you
Diario de Cuba detected 22 diction mistakes in Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel’s 17-minute speech to the “Non-Aligned”. Sometimes confuses the letter “r” and the “l”. A huge mistake in the field of homophony or paronymy. Díaz-Canel confuses the Spanish verbs “propiciar” (propitiate in English) and “propinar” (to give in English). Nor does he know that “neoliberalism” does not exist. It is an empty label used by socialists of all kinds to disqualify their adversaries. What really exists is some sensible economic measures. Let’s make clear that liberalism is, first, a moral conviction; secondly, a legal issue; and, finally, certain economic proposals arising from experience. It is not about the disappearance of the State; it is about the State doing well the tasks we have entrusted to it. Regarding health and education, it is very important to strengthen them as a joint effort of society, but without placing them directly under state control. That is the true distinction between liberals and socialists. We liberals think that individuals are able to make personal decisions better, while socialists are sure that it is preferable that the State makes that selection. This does not mean that individuals always make the right decisions. To err is human, but much more human is to persist in error.
