Several years ago the biggest story out of Cuba was that Fidel had issued new rice cookers to everyone in the country.
That is how poor they are.
Iirc Cuba at the time of Batista had the sixth highest living standard in the world. Now? Way down the list. Except for Fidel and Raul.
Yes roughly the same as Canada if I remember it right.
Well, I’d say that Fidel’s “Living Standard” right now, isn’t too good.
