I hope Stew is right. Communism stinks, even more so when it's only 90 miles away. I do think it would have been better to allow the embargo, or what remained of it, to stay in place and let things take their natural course.

The Embargo allowed the government to deepen its control and foster and US v Them atmosphere. It created an unnatural course and has allowed the Cuban authoritarian regime to remain in power longer than all of there former comrades. Now the "natural course" has a chance to happen. Do some reading...free trade kills authoritarians.

So you think maintaining an artificial control on free trade is the "natural course" of things?
