Cuban communism kills fewer people than did its Soviet and Chinese counterparts, but equally murders people's spirits.
Washington did the opposite, intensifying its attempt to starve the Cuban people into revolt.
Collin Laverty of Cuba Educational Travel, who arranged my 2017 trip, observed: "If you want to create more space for debate, expanding the entrepreneurial class is one way." By creating not just more business owners, but more people employed by private firms.
Rubio's priority, like so many other politicians who pontificate on the issue, was to win votes in America, not liberate people in Cuba.
These people invested in expectation of more American tourists and found the US government against them.
The Cuban people almost certainly would have been better off today if the old regime had survived, eventually evolving into something more liberal, open, and productive.
The Cuban people see increased economic opportunities as their best hope.
