In August, we posted how the Castro regime is now looking to make further cuts in its health care services (which is far from "wonderful" in the first place) and is beginning to quantify them in market terms.
Now, Reuters reports:
"Enrollment in the communist-run country's many and varied types of schools fell from 3 million students in 2008 to 2.2 million last year, a drop of 27 percent, according to the National Statistics Office.
The reductions include cuts in some of the most vaunted programs of the Cuban revolution, which from its beginning in 1959 emphasized the importance of education for all and incorporated ideas from Jose Marti, the intellectual father of the country."
The good news is that this might also means less indoctrination (read this LA Times editorial to understand how Castro's indoctrination of children works) -- but that takes place at the younger ages.
So what'll be the new excuse for Castro's apologists?
