This makes no sense. Doctors are paid in countries with public healthcare as well. Dare I to say that Cuba has some pretty good doctors?

That's because C deals with how computers actually think. All this new stuff with languages is wonderful, and often has some uses in various cases, however none of it relates to how a computer actually works. C is a good "mid level" language. By that I mean it does a good job of structuring programs in terms of how they actually work on a processor, while still being fairly easy for a human to work with.
I use C in my day job and I like it, but I prefer to code in Scheme because it is closer to what a human being thinks. 95% of the software out there do not need to run at full CPU speed, so we can spare ourselves the pain and code quickly in an elegant, beautiful language.
BTW, despite all prejudices, Scheme is not as slow as most people believe.
