Why are Puerto Ricans in such dire straits?
Article Abstract:
Puerto Ricans are the most impoverished among the different Hispanic migrant groups living in the US. This is in spite of the fact that they enjoy all the benefits granted to a US citizen, a perk granted to them since Puerto Rico is a protectorate of the US. There are many reasons which attempt to explain this phenomenom, but the most widely accepted is the one which places the blame on the Puerto Ricans and their dependence on state provided welfare.
