Right! Guevara was a dedicated, self-sacrificing revolutionary. But he was a disaster as a Cuban official. As Minister of Economics, he ran Cuba's economy right into the ground, even before the US boycott. He also launched a series of disastrous overseas military actions that came to naught, save for the deaths of his comrades (and himself).
