Where exists this?
You could try Venezuela.

If you can put up with spotty electricity outages, water outages, toilet paper shortages, food shortages........................but hey its a progressive socialist country.

Even if it does exist, they wouldn't let you move there. Not many islands encourage or permit immigration these days.

I've heard that the US runs a nice facility on the island of Cuba. Most of the residents are opposed to pina coladas for religious reasons but hey, 3 hots and a cot iswhat you're looking for, right?

Soo really...you could suggest Rikers for him right? Too bad that got closed down.

But in Venezuela you can still fill that big old gas tank in your used Ford F150 Truck for less than two dollars. Toilet paper is way over rated you can get by using newspapers. The Sunday Miami Herald can meet all your needs for a whole week and once you get down here it is strongly advised to not drink tap water unless you boil the **** out of it and boiled water tastes soooo flat, be like an old Latin America State Dept hand and drink only bottled sodas like Coca Cola or Fanta or try a local brand you just might like it. As for power you don't have to pay for it if it isn't being registered on the meter and there is something to be said for playing poker or Bridge by candle light with a warm tropical breeze blowing through open but screened windows into the house and it usually helps one to be in bed by 10 pm and you'll be fit and rested when you get up with the roosters!

You don't even have to go to a Bolivarian Socialist country to enjoy all the above, I can vouch for Nigeria , Honduras and Bolivia and it is also like this in the Phillipines none of these countries was socialist and either had a US backed military Junta or US approved plutocratic authoritarian form of government.

With all the mentions of pina coladas, we should ask Rupert Holmes to do a concert and play his popular "Escape: The Pina Colada Song" that had its debut around 1980. The critical question: Should the concert be free and funded by the government or do we want to charge those attending the concert? We want to be able to separate the capitalists from the socialists.
