Puerto Rico should be a paradise. It should be one of the wealthiest places in the US. The standard of living in Puerto Rico should be on of the highest is the Caribbean. There should be little or no poverty or homelessness.

But it isn’t.

I wonder why?..........................

Puerto Rico allowed their “best and brightest” to essentially loot the island.

Sure, great climate, no passport required, casinos right by the airport, and just a short hop down from Miami. They’d probably be economically better off letting the mob run it than the current crop of lefties.

The economy has been at least semi-socialist since the FDR administration. The lack of fed income tax, it seems, is not ameliorating the effects significantly.
