Don't take my comments personally. I'm sure there are those that are proud of their status and that of PR. I agree with your MA comparison. That said, PR (as a whole) only cares for PR and sucking from the government tit. Since PR is a commonwealth it is much easier to cut it lose than it would be for a true state like MA. How does PR benefit the nation as a whole? If you've got good arguments then I'll change my tune. Otherwise, PR is like that guy at work that doesn't do jack, rides other's coattails, and is basically a drag on others.

Did you know that WWI and WWII were American wars? This is the first I've heard.

I wonder why they called them World Wars? Somebody better tell the historians.

Hey. We're on the same side and no insult taken. Read post #47. Even my father agrees that PR is a burden and complains of all the freebies everyone gets. He even had a fit when he heard that Vieques was to become off limits to the US Navy. Regards.
