		<description><![CDATA[ China under Mao was a closed society, the only governments and peoples it had and relationship with were those in other Communist states. Cuba, on the other hand, was never cut off from anyone but the U.S. It should also be mentioned that China is still a dictatorship run by the Communist party, who still controls the media, and jails dissidents to this day. While they are not the killing machine they were under Mao I think that most moves away from a state controlled economy were based on pragmatism to keep the regime in power rather then diplomatic and social interaction with the U.S. 
 Every other country in the world has diplomatic relations with Cuba, no other country but the U.S has an embargo with Cuba. Britain, France, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, Italy, etc., etc, etc, all do business with Cuba yet it is an economic failure. Why is that? There are other countries in the world that have had little to nothing to do with the U.S, mostly because of geography, yet they have had some success, Brazil and India for example. So this idea that Cuba&#039;s regime is the way it is because the U.S want&#039;s nothing to do with them is naive. The only way it will likely change is if one or both of the Castro brothers die, or if they loose control of Venezuela as a colony to provide the regime with free oil.  
 Also the ideas of free market capitalism and a free and civil democratic society are not monopolized by the U.S, nor is the U.S the center of the universe. They existed before the U.S came into being and became a World power and they will very likely exist afterward.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you had been following Mr. Fontova&#039;s interviews and previous writings you would know that they are several times as many tourists, some say ten times as many, as there was in the 1950s when Havana was supposedly an American &quot;Playground&quot;. In spite of this the level of political oppression has actually increased not decreased, so much for a flood of money, tourists, and new ideas causing them to change their ways?  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The only reason Cuba and the US haven&#039;t ended the Cold War is because American politicians (and right wing sites like this one) have too much to gain by thundering on about Fidel and Guevara like it was 1962.   
 
Yes, we should slap the s**t out of kids wearing Che shirts like he was some humanitarian hero, and denounce academics who lionize him.   
 
But nothing would end the tyranny there quicker than the US to declare victory in the Cold War, normalize relations with Cuba, and flood the island with US tourists, money, products and ideas.   
 
In the same way Nixon gave China an &quot;out&quot; with detente, we can also bring the Cubans in from the cold.  
 
The only question is do US politicans prefer to make points with aging Cuban-American voters in Florida more than they prefer to end the tyranny? ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As long as there is anybody in the world living in oppression, we must never EVER smile or tour Cuba!   
 
(Hey guys, the commies aren&#039;t just going to forswear communism and oppression because we make them blink.  They&#039;re just going to gradually let go of their grip as money, information, new ideas and tourists flood in.  JayZ&#039;s trip is part of that.)   ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Murray Rothbard doesn&#039;t get it at all. There is no U.S. &quot;imperialism&quot; at all, but there was Soviet imperialism (now Russian imperialism) and there also is Chinese imperialism, Cuban imperialism, Iranian imperialism, &quot;Palestinian&quot; (invented people) imperialism, Communist imperialism and Islamist imperialism. Rothbard is obviously a supporter of Cuban imperialism and the totalitarian misery that it brought on the people of third-world countries for more than 50 years. Che Guevara is simply a Stalinist/Maoist who tried to impose Cuban Communist imperialist totalitarianism on people who rejected it. Bottom line: Che Guevara is a mass murderer, not a hero. Instead of honoring Che, people should honor real freedom fighters like Vaclav Havel, who brought freedom and democracy to the former Czechoslovakia. Today, both the Czech Republic and Slovakia are prosperous democracies. ]]></description>
