Tony,
As many know, I am not an old school Cuban relative to this concept. I am a more modern thinker and I see a need for change. However, I would like for us to establish relations but in exchange, compel them to bring about change. Let's not turn a blind eye to what goes on there relative to anyone wanting such change. There is a very large segment of that country that no longer wants their form of government and yearns for a new, free and open society. They are just not allowed to openly express that. Unfortunately, any organized efforts are quickly dealt with brutality and imprisonment.

Let's give them our dollars but let's use that as leverage to compel them to allow their people to express themselves and change if that is what they wish. Some may say why is it we don't do that with China? Well, quite simply put, Cuba doesn't fuel our spending as China does. I say that is a good thing as it least it doesn't enslave us to them and allows us to be able to deal with them with a stronger arm.
