In a civilized society, should anyone or any government ever force anyone to do anything against his or her will as long as that person does not infringe upon the life, liberty, or property of another?

Office of Cuba Broadcasting

As per the Constitution (not!), the United States Congress actually passed a law which calls for the U.S. to broadcast into Cuba in order to bring down the communist government of Fidel Castro. The government actually created something called the Office of Cuba Broadcasting, and since its inception has supposedly cost American taxpayers $500 million.

Now that you know it exists, I'm sure you'll be able to sleep better at night knowing that powerful radio waves are being beamed into Cuba, and it's only a matter of time before those waves change and win the hearts and minds of the Cuban people.
