Cuba Cuts Bread Rations

Cuba has cut its citizens’ bread ration from 80 grams to 60 grams per day. That is not news from 50 years ago. It is from today. The cost of that bread is about one-third of a cent (about one peso). There are private markets in Cuba for bread sold at market rates. The problem is that the average Cuban makes only $15 (4,648 pesos) per month, so he can’t afford to pay even a dollar for bread.
