Its ridiculous that Puerto Rico has its own sports teams in int'l play. They're American. How can they be in the WBC? The US should be absorbing its team, they're fucking American. This is retarded.
>>
Puerto Rico is ironically more white than the US. 75% compared to 60% of the US.

Why didn't we? It would be another base to tax.
>>
>>74783872
Because we're a tax heaven for many US companies. Spanish speaking population and smaller red states would lose senate seats.
>>
>>74783872
Idk man, all I know is that the referendum that we did wasn't backed by Congress so maybe that didn't make it official. Obongo said that he would support statehood if there would be a clear majority that supported statehood but that went to shit.

Actually it would cost seats in the House (the Senate is 2 per state) but Congress would probably raise the number of seats to allow Puerto Rico in
>>
>>74784018
We would also get big representation in congress due to our 3m population

>>74784071
http://naturalresources.house.gov/newsroom/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=183105

6 seats
>Based on current information, a CRS report projects that the states that could lose an existing seat or not receive an expected additional seat after the 2010 Census in order to provide six of 435 seats to Puerto Rico include: Arizona, Missouri, New York, South Carolina, Texas and Washington.
So probably 4 republican and 2 democratic seats
I'd change it

>>74780145
Highly unlikely it happens considering Puerto Rico is deep in debt and enjoys unparalleled perks being a commonwealth of the US while essentially having to do nothing in return

We haven't been a tax haven for a long while, m8. Get your facts straight.

>>74780145
The referendum is in June, and statehood is likely going to win.

>>74784312
Austerity, restructuring, shrinking the govt. and fostering economic growth. Basic economics.

>>74784155
>enjoys unparalleled perks
The only perk of our current status is most people are exempt from paying federal taxes. I'd gladly give that up if it means being on equal footing with the states.

Majority of the mjlitary infraty is composed of Puerto Ricans. We pay Social Security and Medicaid, while getting crumbs in return
