    This is creating a imbalance in our community giving favoritism to individuals who are not coming from any more of an imbalance Society than any other Caribbean and Central and South American countries. It also is creating a large scale of corruption in our community of the county and Southern Florida for individuals are smuggling cousins and other family members into South Florida and using them as affordable labor having them work 7 days per week and avoid paying taxes in the process. The large impact is also putting stress on our subsidies that we give to minorities which also needs to be dropped from the general process of individuals in the United States so that we do not have people feeling that they are different we all are from somewhere else originally we must put our time in to climb the ladder of success

    There is a United States Embassy in Cuba. Why is The Wet Foot Dry Foot Policy still in effect? It should be removed and the Cubans will stop risking their lives to get here.

    There is no reason for one nation to have priviliges to citizen status over other nations. There are many people around the World that are looking for a nation to provide opportunities for safety and growth. US has lots of poverty internally and Cubans come in and get immediate help with food, shelter and work opportunity. This is unfair to other immigrants as well as it is taking dollars out of Americans that are being faced with difficulties and cannot get help. Please end this Policy now!

    How can we have boats and planes coming in and out of Cuba hourly and still have this policy? Amazing! America takes every country's most valuable resource (it's people) and they happily supply them. Then they wonder why they are still a 3rd world nation.

    So many people wait years to receive a visa and benefits this country has to offer so why should they just step on dry land here and automatically get all that without even breaking a sweat here in this country. This policy has to end immediately it is unfair and unjust to the other immigrants that have been for years working their selves to the bone and not recieve anything.

    Ever since i came to this great country and became a legal resident (and citizen), i never received any help from the government ... meanwhile while i was at work, a cuban co-worker ( few months of arriving from cuba) told me he got automatically medicaid, food-stamp and all other benefits of poor people(that really need it but need to PROVE IT) while he(the cuban got it without even applying. THIS IS LIKE PEEING IN YOUR FACE. THERE IS A NEED FOR JUSTICE FOR THIS AUTOMATED ROBERY

    This law 50 years ago apply to the Cuban refugees who were kill by the Castro regime. Now in 2016 until this day this ridiculous law is making fun of America. I have two Cuban friends that just literary came from Cuba on a boat like 6 month ago they have a nice house, drive a $45,000 Mercedes I mean come on Congress it's not fair. They are taking advantage of out tax money payers. Most of them don't even Speak English and have Good jobs . End this ridiculous Law Know.

    If Cubans are allowed to come, it is only fair that Haitian people should have the same privilege. I believe that all people should come to America thru the proper and legal channels. The law should be be Voided, but if not Haitian people should be allowed as well.

    End this policy. There are countries going through worse situations. People are being murdered everyday in central and South America so why are they not given the same opportunities? It is not fair that after 6 months of coming from Cuba they are out there driving Mercedes and BMWs while people who had to escape worse hardships in Mexico in such countries can barely afford to pay rent.
