No, blame it on W. During the 1990's restrictions were relaxed and a lot of travel developed, including sailing regatta's to Havana, and cruises around the island. Expats with relatives there had liberal travel priviliges and could send such money as they wished to their relations. W brushed all that off the table and put in place the tightest restrictions we have had in decades.
