In all seriousness, who does the embargo really benefit. Maybe it made sense during the Cold War when missiles were getting moved around, but now? Someone somewhere must be profiting from it, but it’s not the American people.

Nobody. It exists solely because of American's indoctrinated hate towards Communism.

I guess long term you could make the argument it threatens the ruling class, because if (more) communist ideals were proven successful then more nations would implement them.
