YES, they need to pay taxes too. Right now all they do is milk the system at our expense.

Considering that P.R. has access to our monies, we may as well make it official and tax “everything that moves” on that island, as Hillary would say...

Voting wise you'd be adding another reliable rat hole that would have the lowest per capita income of any other “state.” The liabilities far outweigh the benefits.

We need nominations for six more states too. That way Obama will be able to remember the number.

Can you imagine even MORE Spanish?
First order of business is to declare English the official language of America. Second, remove all Spanish from all signs, ballots, telephone menus, etc. Third, consider Puerto Rico if they can/will comply with the English-only requirement of America.
We moved from So. Cal. to Tenn. four weeks ago. Haven’t heard Spanish even once — except on some phone menus when making calls to national firms. It’s wonderful.

A Third World country filled with obnoxious Spanish Speakers where a slight majority of the population uses the WIC (food stamps) card? Let's also not forget that the crime rate in San Juan surpasses that of Detroit. No thanks!
You cannot call yourself a cultural conservative, or rightest of any type, and support statehood for PR. We have enough of a problem with the mainland being turned into a Third World country by people who don't belong here in the first place. The PR are lucky that the palefaced saps gave them citizenship in 1917.

From the Washington Times...
The single worst part of H.R. 2499, dubbed the Puerto Rico Democracy Act, is that it would allow former Puerto Ricans to vote in a pro-statehood advisory referendum even if those former residents are already registered voters in a U.S. state. Instead of voting "early and often," this might be called the "vote here, there and everywhere" stratagem. It is fundamentally undemocratic at its core.
