They have horrible infrastructure especially with the electricity grid and food shortages for years. For decades they’ve been paddling bathtubs across the Gulf Stream to escape. The only people with any money are government officials or those with direct contact with tourist. I don’t know how you could even poll a people that live under a communist dictatorship.


That being said, they are independent and deserve to stay that way. And a humanitarian disaster for the US if they were to invade. It just sounds like a pretty big stretch to say their government is popular…..
