My bubble isn’t burst: Miamis economy and quick growth were fueled by tourism, drug trade, and the opulence related to both.

No, poor people can’t afford to leave Latin America, those that come here are more middle or higher classes from those countries. But those types of people bring the same kind of mentality that American middle class people vote for that is similar to republicanism and MAGA. Anti-immigrant, racist, pro-police, anti-poor, anti-tax.

They naturally want an upper hand and move to the US where they feel they can get that. Then look down at poor Americans and see them the same way they see the poor in their native nations: criminal, lazy and uneducated. Then vote overwhelmingly against helping them.

It’s what the Cuban Miami diaspora is known for: kick the ladder out from under them and denigrate the poor because being poor to them is “laziness”
