OK, Brilliant one. Give me the top 5 benefits we get from PR. And compare that to the money we send for social programs. Just the facts, if you know what a fact is.
Ok, dumb one.
Why don't you tell me the top 5 benefits we get from Hawaii. Or from California. Or from NY. Of course remembering that, if they didn't exist, we could derive 'their benefits' from whatever other states remain.
BTW, I fought for this U.S. in a war. And through the decades and to current days, P.R. has contributed hundreds of thousands of military personnel, and no doubt, thousands of lives lost. Guess we are good for something, don't you think? But, I wouldn't give up my life nor any of my fellow P.R. people's lives to save your ass specifically. Bigots like you don't deserve to even be on the same planet as 'us'. You bring out the worst in people, and I don't or think ill of anybody, but, I'll make an exception for YOU.
And you underestimate the number of 'Ricans who moved to Florida after the last hurricane and will vote in 2020.
Neither you nor I know the exact number that move to Florida two years ago, and neither one of us knows how many stayed or left, but, my understanding is that, most of them went back to their homes in P.R. Apparently, you only heard part of the story. And, when it came to the actual election, reports were/are that, most of those 'temporary' Floridians from P.R. either didn't vote or voted for Trump and others on the republican side. Puerto Ricans on the island only know how to vote a certain way, because, their livelihoods, as miserable as they were, depended on voting a certain way.
FACT is that, most people in P.R. are sick and tired of the politics and misery brought upon them by democrats, and you should have seen some proof of that with the riots that replaced the governor there last month. Hopefully, that's the beginning of a better life for most "'Ricans" (like you put it).
So, why do you insist on talking complete nonsense about things that you have no knowledge about, other than that perhaps P.R. has been dependent on the U.S. for a lot of it's assistance. When you are left hopeless by the stupidity of the mainland 'masters', then, you might not have many other options. Ever think of that?

OK brilliant one, you still refuse to answer a simple question. Such a jerk. Like arguing with a liberal. You have truth and not facts
Yeah, right. PR is a welfare state
I will ask you again, what are the 5 best things PR contributes to the US? You gave one - soldiers who want to escape their beautiful, but sh!thole land. Without US dollars they would be Haiti.

Hopefully, that's the beginning of a better life for most "'Ricans" (like you put it). Lets hope that is reality. But the fact remains that PR is a welfare state. Welfare recipients always vote for more government handouts.
