March 21, 201610 yr I just hope NO American companies invest in Cuba until they pay back the companies that were stolen by Fidel Castro. Why would any company invest there when the Castro government always owns 51% ?
March 21, 201610 yr I just hope NO American companies invest in Cuba until they pay back the companies that were stolen by Fidel Castro. Why would any company invest there when the Castro government always owns 51% ? Because there is money to be made. They'll invest; and they won't hesitate anymore than tech companies did over China or textile companies did over Vietnam.

March 22, 201610 yr 60 years of alienation has worked great. Let's try this maybe the population will make a movement.
March 22, 201610 yr 60 years of alienation has worked great. Let's try this maybe the population will make a movement. They've had open travel and trade with the rest of the world including Europe.
