Cuba could be a paradise if not for its government 🤦‍♂️

Maybe the Russians can send some generators, I have nothing against the Cuban people only the government

[manojchowdhary]

At least they are fully committed to equity.

If it wasn’t for Castro/Russia.. the Nation of Cuba would be one of the wealthiest & most visited Vacation destinations in the world!! What A waste!!

Not saying the US is totally innocent but how tf can we blamed for a power outage mid hurricane season?

[Acehitman]

United States should have kept Cuba as it territory Back In 1902

[tanyarae]

That's a lesson that we shouldn't depend on anything!

[JLTravels]

Cubans need to solve their own problems & not expect US to save them!

Big deal if they were not communists they may have light.

A Russian, a Cuban, an American, and a lawyer share a room on a train...
As they're exchanging stories about their journey across the world, the Russian took out a bottle of fine Russian vodka, pours everyone a cup, then proceed to throw the rest out the window.

The rest of them are very confused and ask why he would throw away such fine vodka.

The Russian explains: "We have much vodka in mother Russia, throwing one away would not matter. "

After a while, the Cuban takes out a box of fine Cuban cigar, hands one to everyone, and proceeds to throw the rest of the box out the window, explaining there're so many cigars in Cuba that throwing them out would not matter.

So the American thought for awhile, and proceeds to throw the lawyer out the window.

I feel so sorry for this country, $10-$20 a month from Gov. Some chicken, rice, beans and eggs. That is it. What a shame, while Raul and some gov officials cruise in yachts and they have mansions. And yet some people defend communism.

This is what equity looks like

Everyone is poor and broke and in the dark

If the operators at the power plant are not familiar with shutting down and starting up units because lack of training that would explain the problems they’re having.

Plenty of food and cold
