    As American citizens, Puerto Ricans are entitled to the same response as people of Texas, Florida and elsewhere hit by natural disasters.

        First off, I'm not a trump supporter. But should we also talk about PR's paying income taxes like the rest of us?

        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 …

        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.

        Perhaps it's about time schools start teaching about the history of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 and its relationship with the USA 🇺🇸. It's been 100 yrs.

        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.

        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.
