the bulk of the logic around the US-cuban embargo and it's penalties are centered around the notion that the current Cuban government "stole" all the national infrastructure and all the agricultural/residential property when it nationalized these things and used them or redistributed them to benefit the people of Cuba. this economically injured the gangsters, compradors, and US corporations that had been awarded sweetheart contracts and been using them to extract outrageous rents and ever increasing concessions of power from the inhabitants. therefore, anyone doing business with any organization based in Cuba is effectively benefiting from this "stolen property" and similarly engaged in crime. like you bought and resold a stolen stereo from a fence. except with seaports, airports, and other national infrastructure. if you read about it, it's hog wild crazy what the US is doing with the embargo to support these absolute ghoulish losers.

having been to Cuba myself and seen it with my own eyes, imagining the scope and scale of what the Absolute Worst People on Earth lost in the revolution... I can understand their rage. I laugh at it and mock it, but they lost HUGE with Cuba. it really was the crown jewel of imperial dominance in the western hemisphere.

and the people there just took it back for themselves and their children. the dislocated heirs will be enraged for several generations, I'm sure. florida is a dog shit consolation prize.
