We could end the embargo and take away Fidel's alibi for Communist failure in Cuba. The one thing the Cuban dictator fears most is free trade and free ideas. Obviously he would like to keep American businesses out of the island since while he could use the hard cash to stay in power, along with it comes unwelcome baggage, like freedom. That's dangerous stuff for a tyrant. What we could do is change tack and challenge Cuba to accept trade with the Yanquis on NAFTA style terms. I'm betting Fidel and his cohorts will never accept it. They'd rather continue to hide behind the embargo to justify their murderous repression of their own people.
