Yeah look at Puerto Rico info structure like power grid . Look at how much money is pumped into Puerto Rico every year . Ireland doesnt have constant power outages . Puerto Rico would quicky sink in dept and poverty . But I guess that's what you want

Mostly due to money and prejudice

But republicans want usa to be christian to be only English only white and want to please corporations and rich people that support them. Citizens in Puerto Rico vote against independence because they are good where they are . Republicans want kick then out

It's idiotic just like people wanting Texas independence. Most people don't understand that independence would make Puerto Rico very very poor struggling country. Look at countries after they left great Britain to be independent

I'm originally from Poland. There is region called Silesia . They used to be part of Germany. Now that the region was destroyed by government buissnes was sold to western countries and there is no way of sustainable independence they want to be free
