Cuba Doesn't Have a Square to Spare 4
Cuba has suffered through many shortages through the years but is now faced with the worst possible scenario. If the government doesn't get some kind of help, Cubans will run out of toilet paper and have no way of getting more until the end of the year. Cuba makes some of its own paper but lacks sufficient natural resources to meet its own demand. In addition to the lack of resources, the government has had to reduce imports by 20% because of the poor financial climate. It sounds like the Cubans are going to end up with quite a mess on their hands.
