There is another question. Why else. why in addition to the ethical reasons. in addition to the profound immorality of sitting by while our closest neighbors are ignored year after year after year. while they are oppressed year after year. decade after decade. by a degrading and humiliating military dictatorship that has implanted a system of economic and political apartheid against its own people. A system where people are thrown in prison for their thoughts. where refugees are killed for leaving the country without permission. the most glaring. horrible example being July 13. 1994 where a tugboat. an old tugboat full of refugees was systematically attacked and sunk. and over 40 women and children. along with some adult men. were murdered. over 20 children were murdered. A system where. to use another example. the pharmacies. the drugstores. if a Cuban citizen has a child with a fever or another medical problem. they can only purchase medicines in the pharmacies if they have dollars and if they are foreigners. In other words. they have to get a foreigner to go in and purchase the medicine and they need a foreign currency. dollars. to be able to do that.
