=**CUBA**= There are lots of reason's why some people flee Cuba and some impacts that is going to change their lives. There are 3 topics, #1 is why people leave Cuba, #2 is where are they going and why, and #3 are the impacts on the people that move and what changes in their lives.

Acording to [|http://www.usimmigrationsupport.org/cubaimmigration.htm] One reason why people leave is because they don't have their freedom of speech.They arn't allowed to express themselves, or can't say they don't like the goverment or their lives will be in danger or will be threatend. The former president, will also threaten people that are in anti Castro groups and have signs that say "we want a new President", because he has been ruleing for 51 years! In 1910 the number of Cubans in the U.S was 15,000. Then in 1959 the number of Cubans grew and was over 100,000.They all fled because of presdident Castro.The 2nd thing is there are the jobs and freedom,which means the amount of jobs and opprotunities there are in Cuba. In Cuba the job rates are very low for lots of people because alot of people are poor and there are lots of farmers that just plant their own food to eat. The opprotunities in Cuba are also very low because it's a poor country and can't buy alot of things.
 * 1) 1 Why people leave

Here are some of the places some Cubans immigrate to. The most recent country that some Cubans immigrate to is the U.S because of freedom of speech because they don't get alot of freedom of speech in Cuba. They also go to the U.S is because there is alot more food. Cuba is a very poor country so they don't have alot of food because they can't afford it so some of the Cubans starve to death. A Cuban citezen says "Americans need to realize that our economy has thrived not inspite of goverment, but in many ways because of our goverment." and the goverment includes president Catsro. Some Cubans go to Mexico because they think the 90 mile ride over the ocean is to riskey. So first they go to mexico because it's closer then they just walk the rest of the way.
 * 1) 2 where they go or how they get there

The impacts on some of the Cubans are going to be their health rate. Their health rate is going to shoot up because we have alot more shelter, water, medical treatments all sorts of things that is going to effect their lives and health. The other impact is going to be starvation, we have tons more food because we are one of the rich countries so it will also make Cubans lives easier. According to [In|http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F10616F83D5C12738DDDA90B94DD405B8785F0D3] In the western part of the world around Mexico and the dominican republic, people find between 300,000 and 400,000 people penned up in starvation. That's not alot either because ther are alot more poor countries in this world.
 * 1) 3 IMPACTS

It's a really tough journy and a really long journy for Cubans. It takes alot of hard work and lots of people die because of this journy. But the people who make it to the U.S and can make the 90 mile journy, their lives will never be the same... their lives will change forever!
