Cuba - From the Ground Up, Cuba Is Crumbling

Compare this LA Times report on Cuba to the rosy picture presented by the BBC.

Their homes are also in a sad state, with at least 500 buildings in the capital collapsing each year, by the government's own count. Their utilities are decrepit too: Water and power distribution systems are corroded patchworks predating the 1959 revolution, and olfactory evidence of the state of the sewer system wafts throughout the city.

Cuba is falling apart — literally.
