Career Choices

If you lived in Cuba, what career do you think you would like to have?

Why, you'd want to be a tourist.

You could travel freely about the island. Stay in hotels, go to beaches and stores. You could have practically anything you'd want to eat and be treated like royalty.

Unfortunately, in order to become a tourist in Cuba you would have to leave Cuba first. And that's where the problem is. The government won't let you leave.

Yet, if you do happen to escape illegally, they sure as hell will let you come back as long as there's dollars in your pockets.
