They are totally in favor of Cubans in this country being allowed to visit Cuba whenever they want and to send unlimited quantities of US dollars and supplies to their family members in Cuba, notwithstanding that this is a huge financial windfall to the Castro economy.
Yet when anyone else wants to travel there, they raise a huge uproar about how we should not be supporting a communist state.
I think that it should be consistent one way or the other.
I understand that, per Customs, the biggest violators of the Cuban embargo (in terms of Cuban rum, cigars and similar products) are...exiled Cubans. I actually heard that sentiment from one once—”I hate the Castro government and everything it does...at the same time, why shouldn’t I be able to have a taste of home once in a while”.
