The embargo is far from being a perfect idea, but Cuba is such a small island, that I wouldn't be surprised if tourists and business coming from one single US state would fully finance the regime.
What you hear from Cubans who have escaped is totally different from what tourists see.The embargo preserves the stupid myth about US being responsible for today's Cuba situation. The US does not trade with them, it's as if it wasn't there. Who would people blame if the US really wasn't on the map at all?
They're being ripped by totalitarian government, with no rights at all. I doubt tourist money improve the quality of life other than the govt's.
People go there, enjoy cheap hookers and rum, then spread the story about a heaven on earth..I say, if you go there, take a camera and try to find out something real about this place..
