I know a woman who just got back from a visit to Cuba. She is a minister, and went for a “women in the ministry” conference. She said that she had never seen so much complete poverty in her whole life. The building where she was staying had running water, and they offered access to the water to the neighbors. She also mentioned how you can’t flush your toilet paper there. She said that the sewers, plumbing, and infrastructure were generally non-functional. Crumbling building, Crumbling roads. No incentive for people to fix anything. Also, there is a drought, so few crops and more starvation.
