we are not going to rebuild every part of PR. People sitting around expecting a shiny brand new country handed to them on a silver platter are going to be waiting a long, long time. PRcans need to put the elbow grease forth to help their neighbors. Maybe they could learn a lesson from the USVirginIslands:

“There were few complaints. Kenneth E. Mapp, the governor of the U.S. Virgin Islands, said the federal government had hurricane response efforts “down to a science.”
“There is no country that responds to disasters like the United States of America,” Mapp said, adding that the island is making progress in its recovery and he expects schools to reopen Tuesday.”
