[France24] This embargo is another absurdity/anachronism from 60 years ago.And, wow, what a success it's been. It sure brought that regime to its knees, didn't it?
Meanwhile, what about all that great health care down there? Not so great, is it?

| #8 I think not trading with Cuba hurts American business ... and American consumers. And Cuban consumers. But, we'll bend over backwards to trade with China and let them rob us blind. Go figure. |

| #6 And, wow, what a success it's been. It sure brought that regime to its knees, didn't it? For most of this period Cuba was propped up by the Soviet Union and trade with their brotherly Communist countries around the world, which kept them from feeling our embargo, but at least we did not do anything to help them torment their own people and work to undermine innocent bystanders around the world. Fuck ‘em. They don’t deserve our pity. |

| #5 Yeah, yuk it up. Their political police who keep the others in check are Cubans with a lot of experience. They also provide the party's palace guard to keep the army in place as well. |
