Does anyone here actually want Puerto Rico as a territory?

Seriously. It's a lose/lose for the U.S. to have it. The days of needing it as a war prize from Spain are long over. Spain is a failed state, Puerto Rico is a failed state. They belong together again.

Nope, frick em. They and the other territory islands can go ahead and flip over already.

Seems like a one-way street to me.
Someone more familiar with them will have to tell me what we get from them that we desperately need.
Maybe fruit?

Absolutely.....the one thing you can't buy more of is land. I know PR ain't a ton of land but land is land

No and I wish there was a simple avenue to cut them loose...

We need to cut the cord. Give it away to Cuba.

Not anymore. When the Hurricane hit it also took away its strategic importance which is that of a pharma manufacturing hub.

Canada can buy them

Nope.
I think Spain gave it to us and said “no backsies” when we got the Phillipines and Cuba from them.

Not me. There are already enough pointy shoes and switchblade in the cities as it is.

Not really.

We share no American culture with them. They are American only by passport. They are culturally Latin and Afro-Caribbean. They should be an independent shithole country, not a parasitic territory of the US. Could we just give them full sovereignty unilaterally? If so, we should.

why not?
75% of the land in our country was bought from either France or Russia.

PR should either be admitted as a state, or cut loose as an independent country.
Their status as it stands is not sustainable forever.

Well, there aren't any more enormous tracts of land like Alaska and Louisiana to buy from aging empires who can no longer administer them, for starters.
