Free Trade + Diplomacy For Cuba

Now that communist authoritarian Fidel Castro has handed over his dictator card to brother Raul, what constitutional actions should the United States pursue? Trade and diplomacy!

Yes. I am sure many will balk at the above idea saying that I am helping this communist influenced country thrive. But the fact that if a real free trade agreement outside of entangling with this government in nanny actions and or foreign allegiances, people on this island nation will be allowed to have at least a bit of freedom. Sure, it will probably be similar to a Chinese trading system, but at least that is a start.

How do we kick start this newly created system? First of all, the United States needs to promote diplomacy by shuttling promoters of peace to this island. The United States also should lift the ongoing embargo to this impoverished nation.

If Cuba allows us, theses two countries should focus on free trade to make life more prosperous by allowing more choice with more products on this island. By allowing movement of product within this ninety mile corridor, life will be vastly improved with economic freedom. Yes, Cuba will probably have the same sort of authoritarian regime, but even having a Chinese version of trade will open this much over oppressed nation to many ideas of freedom, which could eventually rid this country of socialism.
