Cuba is a brutal communist slave state. But so is China. I think the shameful thing is not that we have sanctions against Cuba, but that we do not have sanctions against China and some of the other barbarian regimes out there (e.g. Vietnam, Saudi Arabia).
- mathieuh 12y ago> Cuba is a brutal communist slave state America is a country full of murderous racists who hate gay people, all of whom support their government's meddling in other countries' affairs, and other such ridiculous statements.

The fact that Cuba is still ruled by the same oppressive government today as it was when the sanctions were imposed over 50 years ago would seem to indicate that it's not actually a useful thing to do.
