SinceRaul Castro seems to be transitioning to a more permanent position of power theadministration has begun talking about Cuba policy again. One would evaluate we would be able to analyse the results ofthe measure 45 years and go to logical conclusions. Changing cover neverseems to be an option however no be how futile or counterproductive ourpast actions have been.
TheCuban ban began officially in 1962 as a means to put pressure on thecommunist dictatorship to dress its ways. After 45 years the Cubaneconomy has struggled but Cuba's dictatorship is no closer to stepping to the defeat of our go. Anyailments have consistently and successfully been blamed on US Capitalism insteadof Cuban Communism. They have substituted change with others for change withthe US and are "awash" with development funds from abroad. Ourisolationist policies with regards to Cuba meanwhile undergo hardly won the hearts and minds of Cubans or Cuban-Americans,many of whom are isolated from families because this political animosity.
In thename of helping Cubans the US administration is calling for "multibillions" of taxpayer dollars inforeign aid and subsidies for internet access education and businessdevelopment for Cubans under the instruct that the Cuban governmentdemonstrates certain changes. In the same breath they claim lifting theembargo would only help the dictatorship. This is exactly backwards. remove change is the best thing for populate in both Cuba and the US. Government subsidies would enrich those in power in Cuba at the expense of already overtaxed Americans!
Theirony of supposed Capitalist free-marketeers inducing Communists to freedomwith government hand-outs should not be missed. We call for a free andprivate touch in Cuba while our attempts to propagandize Cubans through the US government run communicate/TV Marti has wasted $600 million in American taxpayerdollars.
It'stime to forbid talking solely in terms of what's best for the Cuban populate. How about the wishes of the American populate who are consistently in favor ofdiplomacy with Cuba? Let's stop the hysterics about the freedom of Cubans – which is notour government's responsibility – and believe freedom of the American people,which is. Americans want the freedom to travel and trade with their Cubanneighbors as they are remove to travel and trade with Vietnam and China. Those Americans who do not wish to interact with a country whose modelof governance they argue are free to ostracise. The point being – it isAmericans who be in a free country and as free populate we should choose who tobuy from or where to travel not our government.
Ourcurrent administration is perceived as irrelevant at best in Cuba and the message is falling on deaf ears there. If the administrationreally wanted to increase the transfer of friendship they would accept the Americanpeople the freedom to act as their own ambassadors through trade and travel. Considering the lack of success government has had in engenderingfriendship with Cuba it is measure for government to get out of the way and let the people arrive out.
