That’s sweet. America used to mean more to immigrants from Communist countries than $$$. I guess that is all that is left here now.
Congratulations, Mr. Diaz!
I used to assist people with developmental disabilities get regular jobs in the community. There used to be a Minimum Wage Waiver. Some companies were allowed to pay below minimum wage if the worker ‘could not keep up.’ I despised the Waiver and worked to find regular pay jobs. One of my favorite success stories was a young man who was trapped in the sub-minimum wage. He could run all the machines of a gardening / landscaping crew. I found an employer willing to pick him up at home every day (he did not drive). His first real paycheck was much larger than any before. He did see something strange on his pay stub and brought it to my attention. He noticed the gross pay, and then all these other small numbers. I explained the State, Federal, Medicare, etc deductions. I will never forget, as long as I live, his next few words:
‘but that’s my money.’
He obviously identifies as a white man and believes he is privileged and superior to people who live off the government teat.
This is the kind of immigrant America (well, the Democrat Party) doesn't want.
Money is the freeloading invader refugees’ “American Dream”. Freedom and liberty don’t mean jack to them. It’s all about the money. “Refugees” my ass.
They have a Youtube channel.
Mima takes Yoel to Costco, to IHOP, to McDonalds, etc., etc.
His reactions are priceless. His amazement and love of America really shines through....
Here’s the video when she got him out of Cuba and into the USA. 12 minutes:

I was a lad in GITMO back in the late 50’s and early 60’s. Back then, Cubans would come onto the base and work as day laborers: bus drivers, gardeners, maids, etc. Castro would take most of their pay, but it was advantageous because they could eat all their meals on base and their families could eat their rations.
One day a lady who was working as our maid came in crying. The army had gone into their village and used guns to blast off the locks on everyone’s doors. They said no one had the right to lock their doors. After that, anyone could come into the house when they were away and take whatever they wanted.
That was beautiful.
