What is Puerto Rico enemy?

Puerto Rico does not have a conventional enemy, as it is a U.S. territory and does not engage in warfare as an independent nation. However, challenges such as economic difficulties, political status debates, and natural disasters can be seen as adversities that Puerto Rico faces. Additionally, some view the colonial relationship with the U.S. as a form of systemic oppression, which can be considered an "enemy" to the island's self-determination and autonomy.

Why should Puerto Rico be independent?

There is many reasons. One of them is because Puertorican feel Americanized and they like US. We like US and you can see that the second largest group of Latinos after Mexican are the Puertorican. For other side, we has made biggest contribution to US and it not would be fair from the US to let Puerto Rico alone. And there is some people that want the independece for Puerto Rico, but that are a small minority. Maybe in the 1940's independence has a lot of followers, but nowaday that is not true. Puerto Rico should be the next state of the USA. Youre wrong I believe that Puerto Rico should be an independent country because of many reasons.1 Puerto Rico is not Americanized it has its own identity but there are some stupid people who don't appreciate being puertorrican and want to be American 2. Puerto Ricos identity in culture,sports and music surpasses any territory or colony 3. The most industrialize territory in the world 4.No nationality are better than others if the Americans could bring progress to their country Puertorricans can also I believe that the people destroying our identity are the politicians that are corrupt and don't care about our island the only thing they do is humilliate our island to the U.S And the answer about statehood is no,Puerto Rico is not for sale. Si tu eres de esos Boricuas que no aprecian nuestra isla deberia mudarte pero Puerto Rico nunca va a hacer estado JAMAS

Buying a Puerto Rico Home?

Whether you are looking for a vacation home or an investment home, buying a Puerto Rico home can be a great purchase. Puerto Rico is a beautiful place with stunning beaches and fun attractions. If you are unable to buy a Puerto Rico home, renting is always an alternative. In Puerto Rico, the housing market is different than the market in the US. The tax-credits are stimulating sales in Puerto Rico. It is a very attractive housing market. The average median home price in Puerto Rico is higher than the average home listed in the US. If you are interested in purchasing a Puerto Rico home, the first step is to contact a real estate agent. You may want to plan a trip to view the properties before purchasing. The web is a wonderful tool, but you can only see so much in a photo. In order to really get a feel for a home, you must see it in person. Of course, you will also have to travel to Puerto Rico again for the closing. In some cases, the paperwork can be completed through the mail. Go to auctions to find a reasonably priced home. You can go to a Puerto Rico auction and bid on houses that are being foreclosed or in the process of foreclosure. This is often the best way to purchase an inexpensive home. It may require some work. Look for first-time home buyer programs and grants to pay for renovations. You can purchase HUD homes in Puerto Rico, too. There are numerous assistance programs and vouchers. The HUD website will include guidelines and how much you can afford. When you are ready to buy a Puerto Rico home, be sure to consider everything you want and need in your new home. Research which areas are most suitable for your needs. If you want to live near water or prefer a certain school district, these are things you should consider when looking at properties. Plan to spend a few days in the area, visit the stores and travel the streets. Read reviews about the cities that interest you the most. You don’t want to purchase a home, only to find you are unhappy with the location.


Is the us treating Puerto Rico correctly?

This is a highly charged political question. The answer depends on the point of view of the person answering the question. The most objective view is to go by the Puerto Rican electorate. Most voters (Just over half) seem to think the US is treating Puerto Rico well enough to insist on keeping the same or similar relationship bu voting "status quo" or refusing any other alternative "None of the above" in every plebiscite since 1967. There is another plebiscite scheduled for November 6, 2012 which asks the voting public a simple question: Leave everything as it is, or seek another relationship with the US.
