The question ...Anonymous August 26, 2009 10:14 AM,<br /><br />The question still stands: do the embargo and the travel restrictions affect affect the Cuban people in a sustantial manner? (genocidal is the word that has been thrown about to describe their effect). Your closing sentence appears contradictory. If Cuba is not dependent on US money then why even bother arguing about lifting the embargo and relaxing the travel restrictions as a way to benefit Cubans. Both provide the perfect way for Cuba to develop in a socialist manner without US interference.<br /><br />As far as Americans being allowed to travel to Cuba, it would be nice to remember Ricardo Alarcón's reponse to a university student when the student asked why Cubans were not allowed to travel abroad. Mr. Alarcón said words to the effect that it is impossible for everyone in the World to travel everywhere due to the air traffic congestion that would result. Maybe some American tourists can ask Mr. Alarcón to explain that one.<br /><br />Vecino de NFAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851163370258594999.post-6949919845577097592009-08-26T10:21:27.610-04:002009-08-26T10:21:27.610-04:00chingon -- are you a cuban agent, because you are ...chingon -- are you a cuban agent, because you are just so much over the top you can't be serious.<br />maybe they missed one of the Five, you can be 5 1/2Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851163370258594999.post-21922871954654278652009-08-26T10:19:18.508-04:002009-08-26T10:19:18.508-04:00chingon, please take more ESL courses because it&#...chingon, please take more ESL courses because it's obvious you just can't read.<br />still waiting for your answer as to why you are against all Americans to decide for themselves if they want to come to cuba or not.<br /><br />what a maroonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851163370258594999.post-80374166139918037412009-08-26T10:14:18.243-04:002009-08-26T10:14:18.243-04:00vecino, come on you are expected more than chingon...vecino, come on you are expected more than chingon.<br />is it rhetoric, well duh. the point is ALL americans should have the right to travel to cuba, regardless of the affect it has on the revolution. you can't scream lack of freedoms of cuba and support some of those same restrictions for americans.<br />to try and throw it away on the assumption of impact is immaterial. america the home of the individual should have the right for individual travellers and business to interact with cuba, if they want to. if they don't fine, but isn't it against american principals for the govt to impose itself on its citizens <br /><br />cuba may not be dependent on us money, but the end of embargo, travel restrictions and hostility will help the cuban people. or are you against that?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5851163370258594999.post-78228270213832315832009-08-25T13:40:19.173-04:002009-08-25T13:40:19.173-04:00Leftside,
