Puerto Rico is a good example of what I'm talking about.
The RINO they sent to Congress is likely a Catholic, which is why he is pro-life, but he would never do anything to cut off the river of welfare payments to Puerto Rico.
If they get statehood and voting rights, it will be much harder for America to scale back the welfare state because they benefit so much from it.
We should give independence to Puerto Rico, not statehood.
