If you measure by . . .

Barbara Walters recently proclaimed that Cuba is one of the freest countries in the world if you measure freedom by literacy.

Okay, I don't know why you would want to do that, but perhaps that's so. Correspondingly, if you measure literacy by freedom, Cuba has an exceedingly poor literacy rate.

Perhaps they killed you if you didn't pass your reading test in Cuba. I would bet that most of the 6 million Jews that Hitler killed were literate too.
