I generally agree with this, and it's probably why the strategy with Cuba changed under Obama. The idea of the sanctions leading to a revolution has had decades to discredit itself.
Although I do think the possibility of a successful socialist state is still seen as a threat to American capital, especially with increased levels of dissent in America and the growing acceptance of socialism among young people.
But I wasn't talking about the embargo with that post. I was saying that if the US were to in any way involve themselves with some sort of Cuban opposition, they would do so in the way that best benefited American financial interests with little regard for the well being of Cubans.
