Once the bureaucracy see’s that they are going to be accountable to the American people the government will suddenly get a lot more responsive and efficient.

The VA in general perhaps but I think in Puerto Rico it will take years.

The island is a financial mess because of years of dependence on social welfare. Work ethic has suffered terribly.

Finding people willing to work may take bringing in people from the main land.

Reminds me of a joke:
Why aren’t there any Puerto Ricans in the ethnically diverse Star Trek?

Because they don’t work in the future, either.
