since 1917, you do know what it means to be a protectorate right, here let me explain it to you by google:
http://www.dictionary.com/browse/protectorate
They are American Citizens asshole, these human beings in Puerto Rico's and U.S. Virgin Island are U.S. citizens asshole and they pay pay taxes, there are men and woman asshole that are in the service of the United States from these two protectorate states.
The mainland asshole has a tremendous amount of debt also, have you by chance seen the credit card debt based on a fucking 17 year war called Afghanistan you piece of traitorous shit.
We have the same corporations that bankrupted this island state asshole, because fucking hedge funds and banks, asshole, the same ones that broke this country in 2008 and forced the taxpayers in this country to pay 800 billion of there fucking shit derivatives, and then turned right around the same fucking firms like they did to Greece, lent money and fucked the people and the country and then when the economy took a shit they demanded money, and they have, asshole.
These are same fucking banks and hedge funds and the same corporations that have damned near bankrupt this country because they don't pay there taxes, but they use everything that taxpayers pay for asshole, just like they did on these islands, they use and abuse, just like you do and your fucking cronies..................so FUCK YOU.
I could go on with this rant-------------but your a traitorous piece of shit
