At Miami Airport, a staff member asked: Are Nicaraguans very poor?
Nicaragua is not wealthy, and it has long been under U.S. sanctions and pressure.
However, many ordinary families can go to the hospital for free and can study for free all the way to university.
In recent years, the government has repaired water pipes, sewage treatment plants, roads, and bus routes, and has also brought electricity to remote villages.
On the Caribbean coast, transportation used to be very difficult, but now there are new roads, and young people can also attend university locally.
At a women's coffee cooperative, the government helps people get medical care, repair wells, and sell coffee.
By contrast, in some parts of the United States, roads, schools, water pipes, and medical services have worsened, and many people have to pay very high costs themselves.
Nicaragua's example shows that good public services can change ordinary people's lives.
