Do the Cubans not have an entire planet they can trade with besides the US?
Do you not think the regime will use this event as a propaganda for getting over on the US?
I find it troubling that so many of you put the US and the same moral footing as the thug Castro brothers.
They can't trade with the economic engine of its hemisphere. It's not a globalized nation. The importance of trade with the U.S. to them is magnified.
I'm not concerned with what the regime says. Getting over on us? The majority of people in this country and the world think this is the right move. Only people with u evolved thinking would see this as you do. cuba is a third world island country that has only two exportable products and its car fleet is 70 yrs old. I would hope our country has thicker skin than you.
Where did I put the U.S. on the same moral footing as Castro? You're flailing dude, you're an artifact.

Why is any of that our problem?
They wanted their revolution, and they got it.

Your posts seem to imply that the US is somehow equally responsible for Cuba's economic hardship as that bearded thug and we have an obligation to fix their problems.

And why is their car fleet 70 years old? There are great car manufacturers that aren't American that they can readily trade with, yet their car fleet is 70 years old. People complain that they don't have modern medical supplies, yet they can trade with some of the top medical suppliers in the world. Did you ever think that maybe their problem isn't the American trade embargo but rather the crappy communist government ruled by a tyrant for the last 60 or so years?
