Do you think Cuba is some sort of great place right now? No it's a shithole...the people trying to float to Miami on homemade rafts won't disagree.

Sure the Bay of Pigs was a catastrophe (thanks JFK) and they gave us quite a scare with the missle crisis but an embargo that has lasted since 1962....I think we hurt them more than they hurt us.
Go look up Batista
Like I said,not a huge Castro fan,but what he replaced was the mob,and theyve been salivaiting for this day for 40+ years
It wont get any better for the people,just guys in expensive suits who smoke cigars,which frankly even a good one smells like a gym lockeroom
