They don't pay federal income tax because they are a commonwealth. They do pay billions in taxes though.https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/10/4/16385658/puerto-rico-taxes-hurricane …

They pay nothing in taxes. They should but don’t.
-
Guess you can't read. The article above details the many billions of dollars Puerto Ricans pay in taxes. But believe whatever you like
-
Not saying they don't pay some taxes, but what is the context? I would like to see a comparison what % a PR pays to the federal budget in comparison to a main lander with same income. Keep it simple and comparable.

they pay a great deal more for commodities because everything is "imported" and the Jones Act is obscene

Your right, that's why they are getting the same treatment. San Juan Mayor seems to be only person lying while other officials are praising

Right, make it seem like the governor is bashing but not the entire article where he is saying the response has been great.

Puerto Ricans don't pay federal income tax... so no.

We pay social security, and our relation to the USA gives a net gain of billions of dollars to the USA and fight in all wars, so yes.
