Yeah. Puerto Rico is going through a period of discovering itself after the first Trump presidency. Maria fucked the island, Biden did nothing different than Trump (who at least gave out paper towels), and PR is still suffering from rolling power outages. Luma, the power company, is owned by a company in Texas and has the money to fix it but hasn’t after almost a decade.
PR wants to be in charge of its own future. A power company that extracts money but makes no changes is a colonial enterprise. So much of Puerto Rico is being peeled off for moneyed interests that it makes sense they want little to do with America.
