Unfortunately, I agree there but I think lifting the embargo is exactly what's needed to make a start in the right direction.
Things won't change appreciably until the current regime (or at least Fidel) is out of the picture.. I think Raul might be a bit more forward thinking if his brother weren't around.

So in closing, we should lift the embargo, but don't expect the living conditions or human rights conditions to change in Cuba.
