Hey, in propaganda everything goes. Just like making news that Cuba is running out of toilet paper [when paper is made of trees which are abundant in the island] is used by capitalists to show their populations how their system is so incredibly GREAT.
Do you mean to say Cuba has plenty of toilet paper? :huh:

I think he's saying Cuba has toilet paper trees in plenty.

I heard the US is on the verge of a sugar shortage. Capitalism sucks!

These "studies" show up every time Colombia is up to something. It's a way to remember people [especially Americans] exactly *where* do their drug problems come from.

The only drugs in this thread is the crack you are snorting.  Your insane ravings at least keep things entertaining.

He's saying it's not a problem because toilet paper grows on trees.

In other news the US announced it does not need to import oil because it has so much algae.

toliet paper is usually a mix of hardwood and softwood pulps. besides the issue of source materials (Cuba is slowly going through reforestation due to mass clearings for sugar cane), manufacturing it involves specialised milling, which apparently the Cuban government has not built in any scale. so wood is out.

Cuban has built a bagasse pulping plant, which makes sense, as they have a lot of sugarcane fibre, but afaik, it has not moved beyond pilot stage.
