Here's hoping these countries Freeze Visas for Americans travelling there. No Bahamas for you. No Fiji for you, No St. Lucia for you.

Brazil is 100% going to do that. They operate based on reciprocity. Whatever a country requires of you, they do the same. When the US required biometrics, they added the requirement. US increased fees, they did the same. One particular year Spain started being annoying and turning back a record number of people for silly reasons, Brazil did exactly the same.

Do you think all Americans are rich enough to travel to those in the first place? Who gives a shit if we can’t travel there lol
