"The American Soybean Association favors a normal trading relationship with Cuba including direct banking and elimination of the cash in advance rule. ASA also supports Cuba's eligibility for the Foreign Market Development and Market Access Programs, (aka: U.S. taxpayer bailout)
Entire banjo musical here.
Humberto unless we deal with the root of a problem we won't solve it, we may kick the can down the road but we won't solve it.
On the surface the Embargo seems like just a problem between Cuba and the US and the interest of some agro business fellers.
The root of the problem is that the US government should not use our taxpyaer dollars to create pinatas in other countries wether its by handing some third world government (whether elected or not) our dinero or guaranteeing credit to deadbeat nations they know will never pay the loan back.
That is the root of the problem, whether its money given away to Israel or or lent some banana republic dictator it's wrong it is the peoples money taken from them by force. If individuals for whatever reason want to contribute to Israel or lend Daniel Ortega a couple of bucks (good luck getting it back) that's their money and their perogative, but the government does not earn the money it gives away WE DO, that is the root of the problem.
Don't get me wrong somebodies got to fund an army, build roads and maintain a court system, but giving away our money to foriegn governments or backing credit to them is unpardonable.
Fidel and Raul Castro will die some day (the sooner the better) but unless we deal with these root issues the problems facing us today will continue to exist long after the worms have (in)digested the Castro's .
