So Republicans in the US House are backing efforts to make Puerto Rico the 51st state of the Union. Try again. Pro-statehood Ricans argue that the island's current commonwealth status perpetuates the evil imperialism that landed Puerto Rico in its current situation today.
Pro-commonwealth people argue against it and can be seen aligning themselves with Democrats. Then there's the "Green Party" of this whole mess who argues that Puerto Rico should be independent of the U.S. If they got their way, we'd all need passports the next time we go. Blah.
Like I said before: remaking our national flag would be a pain in the ass and that sheer laziness alone should be the catalyst to....remain the same.
