Cuba to Have More Elderly than Kids by 2020

Unlike some third world countries that spawn offspring uncontrollably and have their older generation die off from unattended infirmities, Cuba's population pyramid is inverted, a top heavy top.

This because of free state-subsidized abortion on demand (who wants another mouth to feed? who wants to multiply necessities?). And because of the free health care system that focuses on prevention.

Readily accessible medical attention and healthy lifestyles have given Cuba the world's oldest population.

In fact, the population is now decreasing.

So many people have not had children that they are now worried about who will take care of them in their golden years.
