Ive been pissed off by professionals. You sir are an amateur
I'm going to tell you a story. In the late 50"s Miami was dieing, literally. Miami was simply a stopping point for folks going to Cuba to gamble and a retirement and death stop for refugees from NYC. The tourist trade was doing OK but not enough to provide the growth and economic base the area needed. No gambling, no nothing. No fun. There was a Cuban community in Miami most of which were trading in agricultural products from Cuba
Then the Cuban revolution happened. Suddenly, Miami and South Florida was full of Cuban refugees. Many were professional doctors, lawyers, engineers bankers, professors and tradesman. The city changed...they worked hard and created a thriving city. You can say all the nasty things you want about the Cubans...they revitalized Miami and South Florida. Not only does Miami have a thriving tourist trade, it is a commercial gateway to Central and South America.
When the Castro(s) regime falls, some of the old timers will return. They will return to reclaim the property confiscated by (the) Castro(s). Most of the later generations will remain in South Florida. When that happens, South Florida will go through an economic boom that your limited cranial capacity will not be able to comprehend. Cuba will have 50 years of catching up to do and most of the trade , manpower and expertise will come through Miami.
So laugh all you want to. We'll be just fine. I'll run for el líder. One of the first edicts I will make is to require passports for turistas estúpidos like yourself.

We'll also have a template at the border: " Brain must be at least this big for entry". Youll never see the Keys again.
PS: I'm still looking for the "Repubican"
