Well August, I guess that's what happens when you bolt to your holy countries defense, blinded by the usual nationalism preventing you to see straight.
Jee, someone pointed out the best and most awesome and free country in the world that holds all rights on freedom, no that basically invented freedom, is... Not more or less free than any other Western nation, or even lacking here and there?
To arms, fellow patriots!
Anyways...

Can Americans Travel to Cuba?
If you’re wondering whether Americans can travel to Cuba, the answer is yes but not without a host of restrictions. Since the relationship between the U.S. and Cuba was restored in December 2014, Americans have been able to travel to Cuba under 12 categories of authorized trips. The Obama administration recently loosened sanctions, allowing Americans to travel to the country independently, as long as they complete a form declaring the visit an educational journey.
Cuba tourism is still technically outlawed, so if you want to book solo travel opting for an educational visit, you’ll need to plan a people-to-people trip, where you meet Cuban citizens in normal daily life settings, such as schools and community centers. Previously, Americans visiting for educational purposes were required to have a fully booked cultural itinerary, which meant booking a trip with a tour company, which could come with an average weekly price tag of $2,000 to $3,500 per person.

Travel purely for tourism will remain illegal until Congress lifts its ban on the island.

I don't know, but I really wouldn't connect nonsense like this with freedom.
How free are you if you, officially can't even spend your holidays wherever, just because your government says so?
Remember your catchy "chains of oppression" phrase, August? Unlike your example (you claimed I can't own guns, which is nonsense), mine is at least true.
You may return to your star spangled cave now until the next time, when America needs you! *salute*
PS: please note how it was the evil oburmuh administration giving you, a little bit, of freedom back.
Probably only to make you feel safe before the Kenian shock troops move out to establish Obamas dictatorship.... Oh wait!
