How about publishing the deterioration of life in Cuba? Here's one piece of a school in Jaguey Grande and what the students found when they arrived with their family:
Indignados padres y alumnos por condiciones de centro escolar
MATANZAS, Cuba, 12 de septiembre (Oscar Sánchez Madan / www.cubanet.org) - El desastroso inicio del curso escolar en el instituto pre-universitario Franklin Gómez, del municipio de Jagüey Grande, provocó la indignación de estudiantes y familiares.
El pasado 2 de septiembre, en horas de la noche, cuando alrededor de 300 estudiantes llegaron a dicho internado acompañados de sus parientes, encontraron el instituto deteriorado, sucio y sin condiciones para el alojamiento.
En varios dormitorios faltaban camas, muchas de las que habían carecían de colchones, por lo que hubo alumnos que se vieron obligados a dormir en el suelo. También numerosas ventanas estaban rotas, lo que obligó a los familiares a intentar repararlas.
Los escolares protestaron ante la dirección del centro y descalificaron a las autoridades del Ministerio de Educación, las cuales habían informado a los medios oficiales de prensa días atrás que estaban creadas las condiciones para iniciar el nuevo curso escolar en todo el país.
Asimismo, diversos padres pudieron observar esa noche a varios alumnos fumando cigarrillos y bebiendo ron, junto a algunos profesores, por lo cual se proponen solicitar con urgencia el traslado de sus hijos a otra institución escolar. Una fuente del Ministerio de Educación señaló que ya se tomaron medidas para resolver dicha problemática.
El régimen ha destinado en los últimos años cuantiosos recursos materiales y humanos para los centros de enseñanza que albergan a jóvenes extranjeros en detrimento de las escuelas donde estudian jóvenes del patio.
It seems that those who come to study in Cuba have it better than those who live there. Is this discrimination or what? It's time to get rid of that asshole named Castro, a man who has brought ruin to an island and caused two million to opt for leaving rather than live under oppression.
