Here "Progression" that is preached by many other parties means taking away reservation, subsidies and such for minority groups, economically backward communities, lower caste people, people of tribal communities living in absolute crap environment etc.
Also, granted Cuba wasn't perfect under Castro it still accomplished a lot. They made a lot of progression in health care sector and educational sector. It is said that Cuba used to have at least a quarter of her population illiterate but now they have almost 100% literacy rate and their healthcare is one of the best in the world(and free!!). Free education, free healthcare, free housing(I think), free rations(probably), no taxes......c'mon..a lot of advancements have been made but it's not perfect. Like every other system implementation matters just as much, don't blame a system for its poor implementation. I forgot another thing which is the life expectancy of Cuba, it is one of the highest in the world. Not saying it's in the best state but calling it a complete failure is a severe misrepresentation.
I think you're wanting "progressive" rather than "progression". I use Google at lot to tell me if I'm using a word right.
