The Disastrous Embargo on Cuba »

Posted By populist 8 months, 2 weeks ago in Political News

It is time for policymakers to ask the simple question: If 50 years of embargo have not worked, why do they expect another decade or two or three of sanctions to work?

    Continuing the embargo is absolutely rediculous. We now have full trade with Vietnam for chrissakes!

    Stop letting the small group of whiners in Miami influence this! It is unfair to the people of cuba!

    Open it up! Allow American business back in there!

      I agree, drop the embargo. It no longer has any point.

        The embargo on Cuba is more than ridiculous. The US government is in bed with the biggest COMMUNIST country in the world: CHINA! Daily, American citizens have a choice between buying cheap Chinese crap or doing without. It's time for our government officials to stop being the biggest hypocrites on earth and end the embargo on Cuba. Tourism and Trade will help Cuba lose most of its Communism. Our government helped Castro in his revolution, and then he informed us that he was not going to be our little USA puppet. That's the main reason that brought on the US embargo--that and the wealthy Cubans who fled to Florida to keep their money and who have kept pressure on Washington, D. C. all these years to make Cubans suffer. Cubans have existed on very little money, a lot of faith in their leader, and the fact that for over 50 years, they have NOT been under US rule. The US government/media always demonizes a country that doesn't want to be our puppet: Venezuela, Iran, Columbia, Cuba, to name a few. Too bad the average American doesn't take the time and effort to hunt out the facts instead of listening to the daily propaganda on our TV stations. I watch a lot of Link TV and Free Speech TV instead.
