My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.—Errol Flynn

Due to Puerto Rico’s gross habits, the commonwealth has amassed a total debt of over $72 billion and has already defaulted on $221 million of its’ debt. When unfunded liabilities (pensions) are included, these additional costs bring the total value of their debt closer to $165 billion, approximately $150% of its’ GDP.

What is that apostrophe doing there?

There it is again, in the very next sentence! What is that supposed to be? A "double possessive?"

The Enemy is within and until we deal with that Enemy we will Never be able to Deal with the Enemy’s outside the Nation.
