Time to open up an electronics store in Cuba

I had no idea there was such a strict ban. I mean no electronics. Can't imagine such laws in place in a country. Imagine reading about new innovations (such as a toaster!), having the financial capability to invest in such and yet not being able to due to government bans. Just cannot imagine living in a country like that.

It's interesting to see how the government is phasing the introduction of electronics so that the demands can be met by their energy supplies. Imagine if that wasn't the case. Next day headline reads "Toasting bread toasts Cuba's power grid".
