These are your arguments for banning trade to Cuba, in a nutshell:

No one WANTS to trade with him (therefore it should be illegal, forget about having a choice. If no one wants to trade with him, then fine.).

Cuba supports terrorists (but China steals our nukes and points them at us, then threatens the west coast, that's not "terrorism" though)

China has a growing economy (so, it is only about money)

Castro is a slaveowner (but the PLA is not, no Chinese company ever uses slave labor)

China is big (yes, there is big money to be made trading with them)

China is nationalistic (how is this relevant? And, Cubans are nationalistic as well)

The only difference between Cuba and China is that China is bigger, they have more political prisoners, they force women to have abortions, they kill people because of their religious faith and stole nukes from us then pointed them at the west coast. Heck, China is WORSE than Cuba.

Your arguments are all about money. It's ok in your eyes to be tyrranical, if you can make money while you're at it.

So you say embrace Castro? How can communism in one country be worse than communism in another country? Money? you think I care about money. You've been selectively reading my posts. That's very telling, almost like, well.........exactly like propaganda.

You said that: “The only difference between Cuba and China is that China is bigger, they have more political prisoners, they force women to have abortions, they kill people because of their religious faith and stole nukes from us then pointed them at the west coast.

I fully agree with you in that China’s policy of forced abortion is actually the most despicable crime in the world today. But do not forget that Castro’s record is not far from the Chinese’s. Cuba has one the highest index of abortions and suicide in the world, twice the U.S’ index.

Also, keep in mind that China is enforcing the same compulsory abortion policies promoted by Family Parenthood and the Democratic Party for Third World Nations through the United Nations with our taxpayers’ money. Cuba also has the highest index of political prisoners in the world in relation to its population and among the most inhumanly treated.
