This whole “garbage” diatribe is bordering on the ridiculous. A comedian that Trump has nothing to do with, opens his rally and makes a joke about Puerto Rico, associating the island with a floating garbage dump in the sea. Complain all you want, Geraldo, but Puerto Rico has the highest unemployment rate and the highest poverty rate of any US state or territory, with an estimated 60% of Puerto Ricans on welfare. Adding them as a state would send more federal aid to the island than tax proceeds returning to the IRS. What it would provide is another sinkhole of voters dependent on government handouts and more likely to vote Democrat to continue suckling at the government teat. So if your definition of “garbage” is more democrat voters dependent on taxpayer-funded programs, then there is no better poster child than Puerto Rico. Regardless of how uncouth the delivery, the actual question is: do we need more citizens dependent on government handouts?
