There are wonderful combinations of wrought iron doors, grills, and window dressings every direction one turns. It is easy to realize the beauty that was once Havana, but now has fallen into disrepair due to neglect. I have been looking at the work of photographers in the US who are photographing the decay and deterioration of abandoned stores, factories, and homes in locations such as Detroit and Cleveland. It is clear from all that failed economic policies, lack of meaningful employment, and no housing market has contributed in both places under totally different types of government. Both communism and capitalism have failed their respective citizens. Maybe greed, zeal for power, and inability to check into reality are harmful regardless of one's core belief system.
