This is an important issue because although there is a travel ban to Cuba, there is absolutely no enforcement. Money from American tourists and relatives sending their family money, is what sustains the island gulags economy.

The travel ban to Cuba was a "feel better" for the failure of the U.S. government to get rid of Castro and to appease the Cuban community in the U.S. to get votes. Why can we go to Red China but not Cuba? Hogwash.

Because there are not that many Nationalist Chinese voters in South Florida.
