For 47 years, the United States has imposed a trade embargo against communist Cuba. And in recent years, former President Bush made it harder to travel to Cuba. Its not clear how or when those restrictions, or the embargo, will be eased. What is clear is that there are plenty of American businesses losing out on opportunities in Cuba in the meantime.

Worldfocus special correspondent Peter Eisner and producer Ara Ayer venture to Cuba and report that from agriculture to medicine to oil, the island is a sea of lost opportunity for American businesses.

  • Cuba could also get in the porn industry to feed those slimy americans.

  • Gusano in exile squawked: "....This is like dealing with the Mafia: when they decide they eliminate you and take all you have..." Yeah, just like US Mafia eliminating Mexicans & taking Texas & like US Mafia invading Iraq taking its OIL USofA aka the Klingon Empire national motto: "My shit right or wrong." Been that way ever since the Pilgrims set their cloven feet on Plymouth Rock fleeing persecution just to persecute the Native Americans & chase after other nations' natural resources. BS.

  • Pissed off they shot themselves in the foot with the Cuban embargo, whore on Capital Hill is bitching in Youtube video "Stop Cuba drilling Off FL Keys" because US can't get in on the $action$ for Cuban oil like Spain, Russia, France & others, so, they're getting all butch & beating war drums because Cuba plans oil drilling 50 miles from Florida as if the recent US oil spill isn't proof of their own incompetence. Tough nuts. See Youtube video, "US misses out on flourishing Cuban business." Aww

  • Sounds like the US

  • Be careful foreign investors! This same Gov. expropriated all private property a few years ago. It can happen to you again. Or worst your "new" investment has a rightful owner in exile. This is like dealing with the Mafia: when they decide they eliminate you and take all you have.

  • Cuba has business with many other counties. The problem is not the embargo but the Comunist Gov. of Habana. 50 years with no elections. Cuba does not pay for their debts that is why they do not prosper. USA is the 5th commercial partner of Cuba. Where is the embargo? This is just a repetition of the Cuban regime point of views. Interview the Cuban opposition too.
