An article criticising the Cuban government's dubious calculation of its GDP:
¿Cómo se fabrica el fraude para calcular el PIB? Pues los burócratas de la dictadura contabilizan como nuevos valores creados ciertos gastos sociales gratuitos, es decir, cuentan esos gastos NO COBRADOS como si se hubiesen cobrados y fuesen ingresos. En Salud Pública, por ejemplo, se calcula arbitrariamente cuánto costarían en países capitalistas las cirugías realizadas en los hospitales de Cuba durante un año, y los análisis de sangre, rayos X, etc

The bureaucrats… record certain free social services as new fictitious accounting entries, i.e., they count those free services as if they were paid services and actually constitute income.
