307. This is useless.
If you think you can make a comparison between the Cuban situation, and the US situation, we have nothing more to talk about. Labour history in the US does not apply to Caribbean nations. If you are unwilling to recognize that these countries are incredibly different from the US, in structure, history, etc, there is nothing I can say.

Unions do not fix governments. The workers of cuba do reap the benefits of tourism without unions, my post about embargoes is responding to your theory that US tourism would somehow increase their standard of living. Lifting the embargo, not a handful of US tourists, would change these things.
