The Cuban government is an enemy of the United States. This is not debatable. For nearly five decades, Fidel Castro has made this point very clear.

What is also clear is that Marxists are right when they claim that a capitalist will sell you the rope with which to hang him.

The Dallas Small Business Development Center (SBDC) is hosting a doing business with Cuba event where you can learn how to get paid for agricultural exports to the island nation.

This begs the question: why are we selling goods that prop up an adversary that’s on its last legs?

Some claim that it serves a humanitarian purpose by feeding the Cuban people. That’s nonsense.

What it does do is support the tyrant in power, enabling him to hold onto the reins of his dictatorship…a regime that jails and tortures political opponents.

If money is your only goal, then by all means attend the conference and sell your products. If life and liberty are more important to you, pass on this “opportunity.”
