First of all, it's not against the law to travel to Cuba, it's only against the law to spend U.S. money there. There are many exceptions to the embargo and legitimate media/journalism is one of them. The Constitution says we have Freedom of Press. There is no way for politicians with their heads up their asses to change that.

As far as health care is concerned - health care is a right in any civilized society. (I wonder how much health care we could provide if the "War on Drugs" funds were diverted to heath clinics instead?) It is obscene and immoral that health insurance companies are allowed to operate. There should be one or two totally non-profit corps collecting insurance premiums and paying claims. Without the profit to the insurance companies, health insurance would be affordable to the majority of people. And that's not socialized medicine, it's just common sense.

Pharmacuetical Companies should be told one thing: "If you want to do business in the USA, then you charge US the same prices you charge in other countries."
