Cell Phone use out of hand(!) in Cuba (says Stalinist regime) time to cut back


I SWEAR I am not making this up:
Since Cubans (who in 1958 owned more TV's, phones and cars than most Europeans) today have fewer cell phones per-capita than the residents of Burkina Faso and Papua New Guinea--the regime is stepping in to curtail this shameless RELAJO! (luxury, waste and profligacy.)
Cuba to Promote Social Use of Internet, Reduce Mobile Phone Services...officials from the Ministry of Informatics and Communications announced the reduction of the access to mobile phone services by the population.
