END THE CUBAN TRADE EMBARGO!

End the U.S. embargo against Cuba!
The U.S. embargo against Cuba should be ended for the following reasons:
*We trade with China and Russia, why not with Cuba?
*Reciprocal free trade agreements like NAFTA and CAFTA-DR promote public policy by incentivizing democracy through capitalism.
*The Embargo hurts U.S. investors. European Investors have a dominant market position in Cuban tourism. German, French, and Spanish entrepreneurs have already invested heavily.
*Cuba has made steps towards democracy, which should be encouraged by trade: (i.e. Castro is no longer in power; the liberalization of the housing market; and, mobile phones).
*Cuban cigars have a market in the U.S. Instead of a black market, the Cuban cigar market should be regulated and taxed just like any other.
