Now we are stuck with a welfare island whose welfare taking citizens can just come to the USA with an American passport. But because of Hispanic politics and maybe lingering love of empire from the Military Industrial Complex, no American politician dares promise to free Puerto Rico. What would Puerto Rico do? Refuse to leave being a colony? That would be a first. At least under the old system Cold War, Puerto Rico made money for American businesses as a plantation island and as a steam ship era naval base. http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-puerto-rico-can-t-pay-its-public-debt- island-s-governor-says-20150629-story.html Puerto Rico staggers under $72 billion in debt; governor asks for help Post Comment   Private Reply   Ignore Thread   Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 8. #1. To: Pericles (#0) no American politician dares promise to free Puerto Rico Dimwitted LaRoucher, Puerto Rico regularly votes on it's status. The last vote was in 2012 when just 5.49% of Puerto Ricans voted for independence. You need to stop your crazy, ant-America LaRoucher bullshit. cranko  posted on  2015-06-29   20:33:52 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   #3.

To: cranko (#4) What is a LaRoucher and why do you want PRs in America as a colony? So your taxes can pay for their welfare?

I don't recall any posts you made that sounded like a LaRouche cult member. Back at LP, we did have a few threads/posts by an apparent LaRouche type. The last I recall of a LaRouche candidate was Kesha Rogers in Texas. Another LaRouchie Dem was on the ballot for Thad McCotter's seat.

My guess is cranko can't reply back without ad hominid attack or some such. With that said PR is one of the worst things FDR saddled the country with. You can't get rid of it now since the Supreme Court idiots declared every PR a US citizen. If the USA were to let go of PR 99.99% of the island would leave as soon as possible for the States.

They're natives when they want to be, U.S. citizens with full benefits otherwise. We should have cut them all loose long since. I doubt that will happen though.

DESPITE all the tax breaks and economic advantages, this dopey American island Shang-ri-la going bankrupt?? HOW?!? Socialism married crony-capitalism marries corruption. The Left *knows* at whatever level of gross mismanagement, stupidity, and malfeasance it governs, it will be always bailed out.
