    The headline aside, this is a good article that goes into facets of Puerto Rico's financial failings. Also the subject of today's @FullMeasureNews https://www.thedailybeast.com/hey-trump-washington-and-wall-street-broke-puerto-rico … @thedailybeast

        Good article, but didn’t mention that the Navy left because Puerto Rico wanted then gone. Also, massive corruption had to play a big role.

        Great article! People tend to forget PR have been part of the USA since invaded in 1898. PR does not own itself, it is owned by the USA

        Yeah, the headline is off. Puerto Rico broke Puerto Rico. Washington & Wall Street just gave them what they asked for. Like crack dealers.

        Good recap, with some agenda twists. "... 1996, when Bill Clinton sought to balance the federal budget..." ask Newt about that one example.

        I thought PR governor said the PR govt bank ("agency") helped PR politicians create the problems? Did I misunderstand? (Great show, BTW!)

        Great point. Loan interest rates were Threefold higher than for comparable circumstances elsewhere, and they are from U.S. institutions.
