4. I'll bet they feel those 90 miles seperating them from Miami
aren't nearly enough distance from the gusanos.

A Canadian member who used to post here, who has gone to Cuba many times has stated that she met someone actually selling merchandise in Cuba who is an EXILE, lives in the States, and is also in business in Cuba for herself.

In 2000, there was an extensive article written in one of our larger papers, probably the Miami Herald, about "exiles" who buy things at a very cheap price in the states, then send them to a third country, where they are then sent into Cuba to be sold at wildly inflated prices.

That doesn't sound like too much concern for one's former countrymen/women, does it? They can least afford to pay inflated American prices. Being unfamiliar with the merchandise, they are unaware they are being swindled.
