So...what’s the problem?

[Gaffer]

As I have come to believe, the problem with PR is that it wants the benefits of a legitimate state in this union (as opposed to what it is now as a possession) but not the pesky tedium of its citizens being subject to Federal Income Taxes. Plain and simple.

Citizenship and the privileges thereof, access to all the entitlement riches normal American citizen (and noncitizens, too) enjoy without that damned income tax....

The benefit they could enjoy (voting Congressmen/women and Senators) juxtaposed against paying that damned Federal Income Tax. A quandary supreme....what wins in the end?

Yup. This should’ve happened to big banks and companies here as well rather than bailouts.
