Porto Rico referendum, why isn't /pol/ talking about it?

Because PR's referendum doesn't actually mean anything. You can't just have a vote and say
>hey US
>we're a state now
>add a star

Ricans are already citizens, state or not

>>129458620

Expect them to push for every Territory having Statehood soon.

>>129459195
I don't know. Maybe he won't say anything at all, or tweet some small congratulations?

Our media doesn't seem to care about this at all. The probably see that PR doesn't have a realistic chance of statehood now, even if it might just be setting the groundwork for later.

>officially become Americans today

they already are. they can move to any state in the usa if they want to.

Wont ever happen thankfully. We have too many solid blue states already.

My personally, I don't see any benefit to the US for PR to become a state. It's in terrible financial shape, it already has the benefits of being a territory, it would be very inconvenient and expensive to add another star and everything else, and the only reason a politician would want PR to be a state would be to try to get more Democrat votes.

>>129458769
>You can't just have a vote and say

That's what Tennessee did. Its called the Tennessee plan, and its what our govt. plans to go with. Its literally just irl shitposting until you're made a state.

I actually don't want Puerto Rico to become a US State for a variety of reasons. Would this vote even matter today or would it be true that Congress here would just ignore it again? I'm confused about that.

>>129458620
Because unless they vote 70% in favor or some shit like that, congress won't entertain the idea of statehood for them. Not to mention that Puerto Rico would come in as a blue state, and with the congress being controlled by republicans, they're not going to admit them since that would mean more power to the democrats.

>>129460475
It's the best option on the ballot.

>>129460324

meh. either shit or get off the pot: statehood or independent nation.

wanting to mooch off of the mighty usa without being a real part of it is weak.

The reason I don't think they will become a state is primarily the huge amount of funding it will take to recover their infrastructure & economy from this ponzi scheme they call a bond market. The bulk of that debt is held by Wall Street and there is no way the US economy can bear them defaulting on it.

>>129460559
>being a second class citizen
>the best option
Nah.

>>129460500
>would it be true that Congress here would just ignore it again?
Our govt. will shill the results as hard as they can, but Congress will probably find some excuse to dismiss the results again.

>>129460570
I would love if we were a net benefit to the country but that's not possible with the current level of economic development on the island. Maybe in one or two decades we can catch up to Mississippi and become a state.

>>129460709
Puerto Rico has nothing to offer aside from massive debt and terrible credit. It's a third world country that should be removed from the US. Fuck off.

>>129461020
>from massive debt
Says the country with $20T in debnts.

Our debt is a drop in the bucket compared to that.

>>129460709
Becoming a state would carry more negatives than benefits. The imposition of federal income tax would make this the highest taxed jurisdiction in the United States overnight. Meanwhile we'd lose huge sources of revenue like the foreign corporation tax which would require massive tax increases or massive reductions in health and education spending to offset. We would lose incentives for industrial development on the island. The hypothetical increases in Medicaid, Medicare, food stamps and SS would not be sufficient to offset the negatives and under certain scenarios the amount of federal gibs we receive could actually decrease as a state. And the presidential vote plus congressional representation would do nothing to fix those issues. So yeah, territory is the best option on the ballot.

>>129458620
Fuck off retard

>I'm ok with being a second-class citizen because it means I don't get to pay as much in taxes.

There are only three million people on Puerto Rico, French friendo, and you may refer to them them as "Americans," not "spics."
> become Americans
They are Americans. They were born Americans. Goddamned French education is worthless. Also, Monroe Doctrine: get the fuck out of our hemisphere, including Guiana.

There was an infrastructure boom in the 60s and 70s when PR was a manufacturing tax haven for US companies, but that all dried up like 20 years ago.

>>129462489
That's pride fucking with your head kid. The only thing that matters at the end of the day is are you better off under X or under Y. "Representation in congress will make me feel better about myself" is not an argument. You'd need to present a case that with 1% of the votes in congress you'll be able to get a better deal than what we have now, and the people promoting statehood have not been able to make that case.

Yeah, being a territory is totally the best option.

>>129463018
Ah. That sucks man, hope your economy kicks up soon, although with the world what it is at the moment it doesn't look good for anyone.

Nothing personal against your island, just don't see it helping either of us. If anything being an independent nation would allow you to become better off. You could become a tax haven and stay on the dollar or manufacture goods at a fraction of the shipping costs of our other trade partners.

>>129463788
The option that results in least poverty is territory.

You know what. Fuck all this.

>>129464451
Being a territory provides us with more tools for reducing poverty than statehood. Once we get to Mississippi levels of poverty we can have this statehood discussion.

>>129464700
I really don't understand your train of thought here.

Mississippi (a state) has a much lower poverty level than PR (a territory). BUT, PR somehow needs to catch up to Mississippi despite playing by different rules and having all sorts of extra advantages for the last 65 years.

If being a territory has afforded us all these advantages, why are we doing so poorly? Worse than any state?

>>129461020
It will end up like Hawaii. The indengengous people will be removed or forced into ghettos and the entire island will be turned into an expensive playground for the rich.

>>129459658
False. They pay taxes, get no benefits and almost no representation.
They are essentially colonies.

>>129465199

Bro we started off as a giant sugar cane plantation with 90% poverty rate when the Americans annexed us. We're still behind Mississippi because we started off way behind them. Despite our economy growing faster than the United States in the 60s (thanks to being a territory) we still have catching up to do.

>>129465404
Either way it's going to become Hawaii 2.0

>>129465404
Lol you dont get all the rights and benefits too so :/
Congress even refused to give you enough to cover the medicare and state school funding deficit.
PR should give them an ultimatum. Statehood or Independence. Honestly dont understand why you guys want to remain a colony.

>>129458620
>Implying they weren't Americans already.

That ship sailed a long time ago. They should have done statehood 100 years ago when assimilation was mandatory and Gibs didn't fucking exist.

Why don't you just turn all of the Caribbean in to US states?

>>129465551
Hawaii isn't strategicallly located between the world's biggest producers and the world's biggest consumers of illegal drugs. Hawaii 2.0 won't happen quite like you think

>>129465587
Don't forget that PR has basically no bargaining power against the US and issuing demands would be largely meaningless.

It probably would only get bargaining power if we all decided to explore independence.

>>129465199
This. You can see it coming

>>129465720
Because "much imperialism" and Confederate apologists liked the idea so they could have slave states, so to normies it's unthinkable.

Plus, why the fuck would we want to annex Haiti and Jamaica?

Reminder that Peurto Rico is a slum full of niggers and spics.

The whole region is total garbage and is littered with shanty towns that resemble some African or South American shitholes. Imagine Liberia becoming a state. It would be something like that.

they've already fucking voted on this 2-3 months ago, and it failed. the government and majority of people voted to stay independent and declare bankruptcy. all this is, is some faggot liberal government members who took a Soros payoff to split their country and force a vote to happen

>>129472008
Yes.

>why are we doing so poorly? Worse than any state?

What do your demographics look like?

>>129467637
a majority of ppl want hillary, obamacare and no border wall. trump doesnt care too so.

>>129472349
I know, right? Or alternatively, since I'm not poor anymore, I'd pay more tax if it meant my vote actually did anything more than like one a year.

>>129471958
Pay denbts.

this votes are stupid cause they do this every 3 years and do nothing about it.

But you have a congress member… you know that right? You do have representation.

>>129472349
PR has fucked up big time and is doing the same retarded shit as some brown countries and mismanaged their fucking budget and economy. basically, corrupt fucks. they've drained their country dry of money and is now officially bankrupt. as someone else mentioned, it creates millions of blue voters, and more blue senators

there's no point in this, if this shithole didn't wanted to be a state when Obama was in office, what makes them think it'll get enough votes now that USA has a Nazi, bigoted, racist, homophobic, xenophobic, islamophobic, sexists, rapist etc, white orange male as their president.
and all the US would be doing is inheriting more problems on top of the ones they already have.
it's awful no matter how you look at it

Yet another reason for no statehood, the shitlib Senators and however many Reps that a Puerto Rican state would get would be screaming for more gun control, because their jungle savage island.

Why don't they?

Is it because PR could become a red state or something?

the statehood party should consider independence once this gets shutdown by congress instead of begging to be a state

>>129473929
Ah okay, if you ever come again I recommend you to go the northern places like Cantabria, Asturias, Galicia and some places of Castilla y León, maybe Seville.

>>129459755
That's why they won't become a state.
We don't have a retard in office who's going to do things simply for diversity or whatever stupid bullshit dems would say.

PR should be given on last fat wad of gibsmedat and be cut loose

Puerto Rico doesn't need statehood it needs autonomy.

PR was never wealthy or developed enough to bear the burden of US Federal Regulations. You want an example of why raising the minimum wage above the productivity of 75% of the labor force is disastrous economic policy, just look at PR. 3rd world countries don't get business investment because they have nice weather, it's because it's cheaper to operate there, but PR is almost as expensive as the rest of the US only with less education and Jones Act inflated shipping costs.

It doesn't matter. Anyone that hasn't realized the US will balkanize is an idiot.

>>129482455
It's a probability.
Brazil has large independentist movements, imagine adding massive gun ownership into the equation.

>>129459924
Do you want to be a state?

>>129458620
/pol/ got hijacked by the CIA

too many blue pilled idiots

This means that if YES wins, Puerto Rico flag will never be able again because it will be now a US state? Serious question.

>>129483519
No, the US government would have to decide to let it be a state. You can't just hold a vote and kindly inform the US that you are now a state.

DNA says im 53% from Iberian peninsula 36% Greek 4% Irish 5% native (taino) 2% west European

on school they just teach us how to hate on Spain and how the US came to save us. But they never speak of how much from Spain we have on our blood and culture specially from Canarias

I would be glad to be under Spanish control if independence is not possible
