Cuban-Americans send close to 800 million dollars per year to the needy families they left behind. But those American dollars are not only keeping loved ones supplied with medicine and food, they’re also keeping the Castro regime in power.

Lesley Stahl reports this Catch-22 while exploring a society of haves and have-nots in Cuba.
