I have been to Cuba 17 times now and it's really like my second home. The people there are amazing and the culture is highlighted with beauty really... its funny that the person posting this does not include Obama or past pres or Prime Minister(s) to the list because they too have done many negative things. It's time to stop the hate and lead this world into being a better place for our children.
The above absurdity was posted by Dr. Cactus in response to a post I had done regarding the death of Cuba's dictator Fidel Castro. I lived in Cuba until I was 12 yrs. and the regime took all freedoms, our assets, liberty and so on. My father was jailed 3x because he would not disclose the amount of money the Sugar brokers has in their coffers. Tourism travel to Cuba puts all that money for the support of the castro regime since the economy is in shambles. 57 yrs of plundering the country is what the castro brothers along with their ilk have done. The regime blames the embargo for their predicament but when people don't produce much is nothing is going to get done. Case in point compare the cuban economy with the miami exile community. Exile are entrepreneurs and in the island everyone is prisoner.
I suggest and even urge Cactus to live in that wonderful paradise he considers his second home. When you return with your tail between your legs I will remind you" I told you so"
