Lifting the embargo would mean more money in Castro's pocket, and possibly less for the people. Castro does not share with his people.

The people go without many basics, that we take for granted in the U.S., like toilet paper. As you imply, I guess you too would be fat and happy if you went without toilet paper. <g>
