No more “Refugees?”

The Obama administration has announced that it is resuming “migration” talks with the Cuban regime.

The last set of migration talks between the US and the Cuban dictatorship resulted in turning escapees from the tropical gulag from refugees to migrants and in the “wet foot / dry foot” policy which magically turn the migrants back to refugees if they make it US shores before being intercepted by the US Coast Guard.

Who knows -maybe this new round of talks will magically turn all refugees trying to escape the totalitarian regime into migrants and will have the US Coast Guard patrolling the Cuban coastline to prevent any would-be escapes from the island concentration camp?

The lack of migration into the land of plenty would put a damper in one of the regime’s money-making enterprises because it would eventually reduce the amount of Cubans living in the US sending remittances and taking trips back.

But, not to worry, the talks will also include the possible resumption of direct mail service. To make it easier to on the regime to continue to squeeze it’s most profitable export:  refugees migrants.
