Cuba’s Seniors Are Barely Surviving

Imagine working your whole life and then retiring on less than $13 a month. That’s the reality for Cuba’s elderly, who are scraping by selling fruit, used clothes, and whatever they can find. With the economy in crisis, food and medicine are scarce, and the state can barely help. Many have no family left after a mass exodus, and some are even forced to dig through trash to eat. It’s heartbreaking to see a whole generation just trying to survive, not live. #CubaCrisis #ElderlyStruggles #EconomicReality #Safety
