    But here is the bigger point,

    Why does how poor they are or are not affect if their countrymen should help after a disaster?

    The petty envy of posters like CFM is so much fun to watch.

    Listening to him whine about those better off than he, is quite entertaining.
    What kind of country have we become?

    One in which federal prosecutors can take “evidence” before a “grand jury,”

    and that grand jury can “vote to indict” a former president for 91 alleged “crimes”?

    You're just too ignorant to understand that.

    The baseless claims of another JPP n-lover like you just proves what I claim about your kind.

    Yet you provide nothing to back up your claim and have admitted they don't pay income taxes.

    Keep making me laugh, boy. Your kind are amusing because you don't know how stupid you really are.

    As usual...

    You are wrong...not that anyone is surprised anymore when this happens.



    The Commonwealth government has its own tax laws and Puerto Ricans are also required to pay most US federal taxes, with the major exception being that most residents do not have to pay the federal personal income tax.[9] In 2009, Puerto Rico paid $3.742 billion into the US Treasury. Residents of Puerto Rico pay into Social Security, and are thus eligible for Social Security benefits upon retirement. However, they are excluded from the Supplemental Security Income.

    Except income taxes.

    The contribution doesn't come close to what they'll get in aid from this hurricane. Typical freeloader supporting Liberal you are, boy.

    Just another example of those not putting into the pot drawing from it. You'd think having wasted $22 trillion in social welfare over 50 years with no improvement would teach you bleeding hearts that handing someone something for nothing doesn't cause them to do something the next time.

    What about Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina... They get more federal money than they put in year after year!

    You've succeeded only in demonstrating that you're nothing but a pitiful, phony troll who plays at being some kind of racist.

    Well gee, much as I'd love to believe you, I'm afraid I'm going to need a bit more than just your word...how did you put it?

    Racist pigs like CFM don't believe Puerto Ricans are REAL Americans like the people of Alabama, Georgia, etc.

    63 congressional districts in the country have more than 20% of their residents using food stamps. 54 of them have a Democrat representative. In the 4 states you mentioned, 5 such district exist. Why are those black majority areas making the rest of the state look bad?

    Mississippi 2nd Bennie Thompson (D) 63.5% black with a 25.8% use of food stamps.

    Alabama 7th Terri Sewell (D) 61.7% black with a 251% use of food stamps.

    Georgia 2nd Sanford Bishop (D) 53% black with a 27.2% use of food stamps.

    Georgia 5th John Lewis (D) 61% black with a 20.4% use of food stamps

    SC 6th Jim Clyburn (D) 57% black with a 23.7% use of food stamps.

    In SC, none of majority white districts come close to 20%. Perhaps it's the overwhelmingly disproportionate use by blacks in that on district that makes the red districts look bad. We'll go with that.
