They (the people of Puerto Rico) are truly the sweetest people on earth.
I'm from Puerto Rico. I know heat.
Puerto Rico is not a full part of the United States. We're a territory or a colonial territory.
Puerto Rico lacks resources, but that's not the fault of the U. S.
You know, you may not be born in Puerto Rico, but Puerto Rican is definitely born in you.
I had such a great upbringing in Puerto Rico, and it was just a very normal life.
The one key difference is that Puerto Rico is a colonial territory. We don't have representation. We have a difficult time getting funding from the federal government. This is critical component that we need to change.
There's one last thing we need to point out. And it is a fact that Puerto Rico is a colonial territory of the United States. This puts us in a very significant disadvantage to all of the other states and to all of the other American citizens. As a matter of comparative, the U. S. citizens, the Puerto Ricans that live in the United States have much better incomes, more than twice as much, participate in the labor force of greater scales, have better results in the education system and so forth.
Federal program and services outlay in Puerto Rico is approximately $10 billion per year.
