The only way to bring down Castro and the communist government there is to do away with the embargo entirely.
Castro has used this embargo as a tool for years to prop up his corrupt regime and stay in power.

The big roach, Castro will never let the light shine on the people. If you don't belive this, you don't know enough about the situation.
If you dispute this, go to the LINK at Post #11 and read a lively debate on lifting the embargo and what will and won't help Cubans.

You mantain that "The only way to bring down Castro and the communist government there is to do away with the embargo entirely. Castro has used this embargo as a tool for years to prop up his corrupt regime and stay in power."

You show extreme naiveté and ignorance about dealing with a brutal Stalinist regime like Castro’s. You want to award Castro to the tune of 6 to 8 billion dollars of American taxpayers money in subsidies every year, something already tried before by the Soviet Union, Mexico, Spain, Canada, the European Union and 150 other countries stupid enough to trust a masterful crook ad Fidel Castro.

The only positive legacy of Castro’s is that he heavily contributed to the demise of the Soviet Union, to keep Castro in power was to much of a drain for the Soviet Union’s economy-Castro bankrupted the “evil empire.”

What miraculous power have the American taxpayers money that it mere presence in Cuba would do away with the Castro’s regime? Castro is among the richest chief of state in the world, according to Forbes magazine. Why should the American taxpayers finance and enrich even more a terrorist who has pledged to destroy our country? Appeasement with evil is always a losing proposition.

Castro has defaulted in all his international debts, his credit is nil, why should we sell anything to him on credit without any expectation of going to be paid back. We are in a war against terrorism and those in the Congress who under false pretense are trying to help the Cuban regimen are bordering in treason.
