Please, this is already disrespectful, it's a mockery. This is worse than the concentration camps. You criticized Batista and his government, but he lived. Many people have died. This happens. Left-wing governments are bothered by the right, and right-wing governments are bothered by the left.
But killing a country with hunger, with a lack of medicine, transportation, of everything vitally necessary, a country that was given one of the best economies in America, and many industries that what they had to do was give continuity and maintain them as well as the heritage.
You centralized everything and have not been able to maintain it, and the most painful thing is to look for other culprits. Stop the bragging and answer for all the money that comes into Cuba, where it is, and how it has been used, because there is no sign of progress.
Sir, recognize that there is no capacity, this is too big for them, they cannot cover everything, and the level of corruption is immense, not even bread, the sacred food, can they guarantee it.
And to have the I have no words to ask for more effort when it has been seen that in 66 years there has been no progress at all, and they have us as a guinea pig for their experiments, every time they launch a project or law you get rich but the people go to misery. Don't blame the blockade anymore, for me it is an embargo because many American products enter here for you.
Remember that our population needs bread
I don't like to talk about what you don't like, but I can't stand it any longer. You justify everything and it's one lie after another. You believe that you can live with 1528 pesos. From the very beginning, you accepted that the prices
They will shoot up, but government things also have frightening prices and they have no solution to reorganize this, because it is not about raising salaries, it is about looking for the economy, it is about producing and letting the investor have facilities and not stealing their money like they did to the population that had money in hard currency. Look how long this population has been without liquefied gas and what solution are they going to look for, gentlemen? Feel like 10 capable people and not 300 who just to look good only say yes and are afraid to say this, it cannot be.
Every absence of something leaves me speechless
But the president elected by them is very orcupI've been celebrating historic dates even outside of Cuba. In short, the Cuban people haven't mattered to any leader for a while now.
And the tunas seem to have been erased from the map because they are never mentioned and there has been no bread for over a week, however on May 1st flour appeared and they made bread, just on that day and there is one week left until Mother's Day, so we will not eat bread until June and we will not cook with gas from balita until 2026 and no one comes forward to give an explanation to the population
Speechless!! In tears!! 😭😢😢😥
At the Cerro bakery, located on Infanta and Santa Rosa streets, there has been diversion (to put it mildly) for years. They sell us bread at half the stated weight, which is a scam. We've complained, but they've done nothing. Please help report this. Thank you.
But free bread is sold at exorbitant prices. Even if it contains flour, we don't have enough money to buy a bag of eight substandard loaves every two or three days. The government knows this and doesn't solve the problem.
The situation the country is going through is painful. How many years have we been in this situation? And I keep wondering where the money that comes into Cuba goes. The situation is getting worse and worse, and the people are putting up with it, with a state of conformity that is uncomfortable.
Here in this country nothing is good everything is bad.
I ask who is to blame for the poor management of the state that spends money on trips. Luxury hotels. They spend their lives blaming the blockade. Lie after lie. WHAT ARE THEY DOING, MEETING EVERY DAY? YES, EVERY DAY THERE IS MORE HUNGER AND MORE MISERY, BUT FOR THEM IT IS NEGATIVE. THEY LIVE THE BEST LIVES, THEY DO NOT LACK FOOD OR ANYTHING. THE CHILDREN CRY FROM HUNGER. THERE IS NO MEDICINE. BUT THEY HAVE NO MONEY. WHAT A LACK OF RESPECT, WHERE DOES THE MONEY THAT COMES INTO CUBA GO?
Until When
Well, if they kill us, they won't solve anything here. The country is falling apart. You have no running water, no food, and now bread is something new every day. Don't tell any more lies.
Gentlemen, we're approaching the middle of the year and there's no good news for Cubans. We've become complacent about the fact that there isn't any! And the problem has been solved... Until when?
Oh, Juana, this will be until the Malecón dries up, so you can imagine, hahaha, this country is laughable, and where are we going to go? As a friend says, this is "To screw yourself and endure" in short "garlic and water."
