This is the sad truth of places like Cuba or North Korea. Everything is forbidden to the point that eating is difficult. So people get corrupted and the guards, etc. just want their part.

None of those things should be illegal. It is really annoying to see how a leader class kills people of hunger and make everything illegal so that now everyone is a criminal for trying to survive.

Please don't use this site for ideological battle—especially not generic ideological battle. It's against the rules because it's repetitive, nasty, tedious, and not what HN is supposed to be for.
