My Class and I read the book"Lupita Manana", and most Hispanic people come to the United States for better job opportunities family, or because they just want to start a new and better lifestyle for their family. Another reason is so they can speak English and so they can make more money, and put food on their tables. The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico is a part of the US. So asking why Puerto Ricans come to US?, is much like asking Why do Californians Come to Texas? Or Pennsylvanias to New York? In third world countries such as Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Venezuela and others, Latinos there come to the US for the Mighty Dollar which is probably 2 or 3 times the rate of the currency in their own countries. So for them to come here and make a dollar and send it back home and have 3 "dollars" at home is the smart thing to do.
