Why hasn't America put a travel ban on going to North Korea?

Question

North Koreans are known to kidnap American tourists and hold them for bargaining chips and are far more dangerous and brutal than most nations...which leads me to a second question..

WHY THE HELL IS THERE STILL A TRAVEL BAN ON GOING TO CUBA? The Cold War ended over 2 decades ago, there is no violent anti American sentiment in Cuba like there is in North Korea, and Cuba is not very oppressive as they use to be.

Why the double standard? Is our government stupid? If I was in charge I'd out a travel ban on North Korea, and lift travel and economic sanctions on Cuba.

Answer 1

I guess we are hoping for the kidnapping of Dennis Rodman first..

Answer 2

Does any sensible person need more than the warning that they already have posted?

Answer 3

Dennis Rodman needs a place to play HORSE.

Answer 4

Americans should be free to travel anywhere they wish.



Anything less than that is government tyranny.



Free people have the right to immigrate and migrate.

Answer 5

Mainly because its a good tourist attaraction and america wants to use it as such.

Answer 6

Why didn't N.K. keep Rodman?

Answer 7

Bueller ? McFly ?
