When we stop and look at it. most despotic or totalitarian governments rise because of economic chaos. because there are no jobs. and their people sink down into despair and desperation to a loss of freedom. The Caribbean area is no different. Already. we have seen such things take place in Cuba. Nicaragua. perhaps El Salvador. and I fear others. This results in a national security problem for this Nation. waves of Megal immigrants on our borders. and the loss of markets for our own trade goods. thereby hurting our economy. We simply cannot afford. with our own deficit problems. the amount of foreign aid or handouts we are going to have to give to keep these countries going and keep them free. We cannot afford it.
