But, it really has nothing to do with immigration--you guys are just too much fun to rile. PR has had ample opportunity to become a state, but they would rather wallow in their limbo status. It is the epitome of liberalism--they desire all the benefits without the cost. It is like a spoiled child--eventually you have to cut them off for their own good.

However, I guess you are too simpleminded to grasp the relationship between rights and responsibilities.

Remember that PR would have the lowest per capita income of the "51" states if admitted. In other words, many of its inhabitants STILL wouldn't have to pay the federal income tax.
