Cuba is on the verge of collapse. They rely on oil to produce electricity and the power plants that were built in the 60's are obsolete and poorly maintained and on the verge of failure with rolling blackouts daily. Their largest oil storage facility was struck by lightning this weekend and is on fire. They are black listed by the IMF for failure to repay a previous loan and dependent on Russia and Venezuela for oil they barter for. They are out of foreign currency to pay for imports of food and other necessities. They're fucked and just waiting for the power grid to completely fail and the starvation to begin. This type of scenario is playing out in small countries around the world and this winter will see many in chaos and death.
