it’s vile, I hate to hear it. so much human potential being wasted, for what? so some fucking banks can extract a few more dollars and some crypto pedophiles can buy up land for their next “no taxes or age of consent slavery zone” project…

It wasn't always like this. Puerto Rico's health care system used to beat the envy of the caribbean. It was actually a universal health care system from 1957-1993. Sadly neoliberal pro statehood politicians privatized it over the years until it was finally dismantled in 1993
