Unfortunately we're only full citizens if we live outside of PR. Everyone that moves to PR loses the right to vote in POTUS general elections if they make PR their primary residence. But, AFAIK, everyone born in PR is not a 14th Amendment citizen like the rest of America is. So, that makes me not one.

Of course, you would say racism. That is the only way to say it when you have no information to back up. Puerto Rico is WORTHLESS, I didn't say anything about skin color. I mean really? Anytime someone brings up race card when they have no information to back up are the true racists. You should be ashamed to say that.

I guess you haven't been to Puerto Rico, it's only good for vacation. 1/3 of Puerto Rico Food Stamps? No thanks, we don't need anymore of that into a state.

Makes no difference if PR was a state or not when it comes to food stamps. Still gonna get food stamps one way or another. Only difference would be PR would be counted into the official statistics, that's it.

I know but this thread is about food stamps, I didn't want to bring up other stuff as it could be off-topic.

And you wonder why everyone who isn't a white male don't vote for the GOP in large numbers funny, the GOP's worst enemy are its voters like you LOL

I am not a Republican.

Not necessarily. Puerto Ricans from the island are not the same people as the ones you come across in NY, PA, NJ, or FL.




Yep, exactly. The GOP's worst enemy are a majority of their own male voters. Talk about irony.



Why should we have to listen to what less than 5% of Puerto Ricans want?



Should we hive off most of the Old Confederate states then? The Southern states have some of the most food stamp recipients in the country

Most of the food stamp recipients in the "Old Confederate states" are blacks.

If they were independent, they could finance their own Food Stamp program

And yet Puerto Rico has the highest standard of living -- above all the Spanish speaking nations. So why is it that so many are insisting we become a Spanish speaking nation?

The USA, Canada and Barbados are the 3 nations in the western hemisphere with the highest standards of living, incidently they are the English speaking nations.

It is happening here unlawfully and unnaturally via illegal immigration.

Just say "Yo no hablo espanol." And move on with your life, "massive illegal immigration by Hispanics" aren't forcing you to do anything. Which, what is this obsession with Mexicans, and how can you tell an illegal from a legal Mexican?
