From Libertarian Wiki

The American government maintains a hostile stance towards Cuba. The most prominent aspect of this hostility is the Cuban embargo, but it also includes a history of covert action against Fidel Castro and his regime, along with support for the Cuban exile community.

The USA maintains a military base at Guantanamo Bay, based on a perpetual lease signed immediately after Cuban independence from the USA. Since Castro came to power, the Cuban government has not recognized the validity of this lease.

Libertarians generally oppose the embargo and covert actions against foreign governments. The occupation of Guantanamo Bay is not commonly discussed, but may be opposed based on opposition to the stationing of troops on foreign soil, especially in opposition to the local government.

Cuban Economy

According to the Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal, the Cuban government consumes nearly 35% of the GDP, employs 73% of the labor force, and investment of capital has large restrictions including required approval by the government. The Cuban government sets most prices and rations goods to citizens, has decreased inflation by restraining its monetary policy, but "State salaries average $15 to $20 per month in Cuban pesos... Cuba is chronically dependent on credit accounts that rotate from country to country. Typical imports are food, fuel, clothing, and machinery. Exports include nickel, cigars, and state-sponsored labor, for which the government charges many times what it pays in state salaries. Lacking investment, Cuba's sugar industry is no longer viable"[[1]]

Cuban Healthcare

The Cuban American National Foundation and Lawrence Solomon of the Urban Renaissance Institute claim that Cuba masks the truth behind the Cuban health care system. They argue that real Cuban healthcare is abysmal and that what is shown to non-Cuban foreigners is a healthcare system unavailable to the average Cuban.[2][3][4] The conservative American newsmagazine the National Review has made similar criticisms.
