biznation00 Posted July 1 Report Share Posted July 1 Here are some interesting facts about Cuban-Americans. This information was obtained from the US Census Bureau: Cuban Americans have acquired an enormous amount of wealth and prosperity in an extremely short period of time. No other immigrant group has achieved this as quickly as the Cubans. Many immigrants have never achieved it at all, despite being in this country far longer than Cubans. Second-generation Cuban-Americans were more educated than even Anglo-Americans. More than 26.1% of second-generation Cuban-Americans had a bachelor's degree or better versus 20.6% of Anglos. Thus Cuban-Americans in 1997 were approximately 25% more likely to have a college degree than Anglos. Other Hispanic groups lag far behind. Only 18.1% of South Americans had a bachelor's or better. Puerto Ricans, despite being U.S. citizens by birth, recorded a disappointing 11%; Mexicans only 7%. In 1997, 55.1% of second-generation Cuban-Americans had an income greater than $30,000 versus 44.1% of Anglo- Americans. Thus Cuban-Americans are approximately 20% more likely to earn more than $30,000 than their Anglo-American counterparts. All other Hispanic groups lag far behind in average income. In 1997, 36.9% of second-generation Cuban-Americans had an income greater than $50,000 versus 18.1% of Anglo- Americans. Cuban-Americans were twice as likely to earn more than $50,000. Also, approximately 11% of Cuban-Americans had incomes greater than $100,000 versus 9% of Anglo-Americans, and less than 2% of other Hispanics. Cubans comprise less than 4% of the U.S. Hispanic population, Mexicans 65%, Puerto Ricans 10%, Central and South Americans 11%, and "others" 10%. Yet of the top 100 richest Hispanics in the U.S., more than 50% are of Cuban descent (ten times what it should be on a population basis), and 38% of Mexican descent. The rest is scattered among all other Hispanic groups. Great economic envy, felt by other Hispanic and minority groups towards Cubans, exists. Also, Anglo Americans see Cubans as a group that "is unwilling to assimilate". How about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Anglo Americans see Cubans as a group that "is unwilling to assimilate". How about that! Is it that Cubans have sort of genetic advantage that makes them so successful? ... is it the similar weather? ... is it their 'development' and further control of a city with high tourism and the natural port for exports to LA? ... or should they thank Fidel for their success? ...Hint: The only communist country in L.A. is Cuba ...Therefore:i) Immigration laws that give them ... after 366 days ... the freedom to produce legally ...ii) Union of political agenda ... which translates in a 'religious' kind of employment favors ... iii) No country to go back and spend six months leisure time as opposed to Puerto Ricans ... the only other legal nationality ...Just think about it ... ... the key is the 366 days ...
