I have no intention of doing business in Cuba but I can't say that I blame them given the hostile environment buisinesses face in the U.S.  Between regulations, taxes and the high cost of labor it is no surprise that a company would expand their business with manufacturing operations on other countries.  Maybe we should look at why a business would make a rational decision to do so and fix those problems.  Businesses are not social experiments and they do not exist to create jobs for one group of people over another.  They exist to provide products and services at a reasonable price that generates a return to the shareholders for the risks taken.

As for the opening of relations with Cuba, I have no objection to doing so although dear leader is certainly making us look like fools.  Forst he lands in Cuba and is met by some lower level government official.  Slap in the face.  Then you have Castro insulting the U.S. and dear leader basically agrees with him.  Slap in the face.  It's no wonder they replaced the face of Che with Obama as they are fellow travelers.  For once Trump said something I agree with, had it been him and he wasn't being met by Castro he would have turned around and gone home.  In reality, he would have never gone in the first place without the knowledge that he would have been met by Castro and would have had free access to the media in Cuba to rightly condemn totalitarianism and the lack of freedom.
