The following video misses the glaring reason why Puerto Rico is falling apart. Please click on the following link to watch that video: https://youtu.be/HZXiF_rp3E8
The United States (US) wants Puerto Rico to fall apart. If that were not the case, the US would have already complied with 42 United Nations’ resolutions demanding the immediate return of Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. Instead, it has allowed 6 million Puerto Ricans to have abandoned their national territory (gentrification), and allowed half of the 3 million people in Puerto Rico to live in poverty.
US imperialism is not good for US citizens either. While 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are Americans, 40 million US citizens live today in poverty, and 201 million more live from paycheck to paycheck. Instead of being the champion of democracy as the US claims, it is obviously the champion of imperialism.
During the past 40 years of reciprocal beneficial economic relations with the US, the People’s Republic of China, unlike the US, invested its wealth to benefit 1.4 billion Chinese. Today, China has eradicated poverty, despite having 4 times the US’ population. That is why, as only 28% of Americans are satisfied with their government, over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with their government!
It’s US imperialism stupid!
