Q: But if we got rid of those laws, opened up trade with Cuba, and started doing business with them, wouldn't that help the Cubans become capitalists?
A: Don't be a smart-ass.
ROFL. [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img] Only killing Castro will free Cuba. Period. I'll agree that we should be down there economically raping it for all its worth -- just like the Germans/French did in Iraq, but in this instance my country took the (correct) moral stance. While it fails to do this in every instance, I won't falter in my support when it does. As for damning the US for its policy with Cuba, you try picking up Cuba's castoff trash for a while, and then I'll listen to you. Maybe Elian can visit YOU for a week. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

If you really gave a damn about Cuba, you'd hate Castro every bit as much as US policy does. If I EVER meet a Cuban who feels differently I'll reconsider this, but the hatred for Castro is no greater than among every single Cuban I know.
