Why is it that they don't pay any income tax, while the original charter for the IRS shows them to be a Puerto Rican collection agency for the ATF? Under that charter, the US Commonwealth's are the ONLY places where the IRS has any jurisdiction. Not in the continental US.

They don't want our military.Do you know what the percentage is that "don't want our military?"
They already pay no federal income tax.
So if I move to Puerto Rico, I don't have to pay?
Give them independence. Free PR now!
In many votes among residents there, those that want independence have always lost.

Fourteen Billion dollars each year of the taxes you just paid are spent subsidizingPuerto Rico, which returns nothing of value. Write your legislators and tell them to cut these worthless leeches out of the federal budget. Give them the greatest treasure of all-- self reliance. Now to put a nasty spin on it, the Marines need training in settings like this and let's just put 10 or 15 thousand of the Marines in there and pacify Puerto Rico. They want it, they need it, and it will give their communist governor and her minions a lesson that the big-time communists have already learned-- which is that if you don't produce shit, you aint shit and deserve to be treated like shit, and when you are, no one will give a shit.
