Trump Rejects Push to Help Solve Puerto Rico Debt Crisis

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he is opposed to a push to help Puerto Rico resolve its $70 billion debt load as the U.S. territory faces looming austerity measures amid a deep economic crisis.

US territory owes creditors $73 billion
Bankruptcy won't be an easy process. A judge still has to approve it. Many prominent Wall Street firms own Puerto Rico's bonds. They are angry about the bankruptcy filing because they fear now they won't get paid back all the money they are owed.

Puerto Rico's situation is ugly. The island has been in an economic recession for about a decade and the unemployment rate is 11.5%, meaning more than one in 10 adults can't find work.

AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM:

KICKING ASS, KILLING NAZIS, KILLING COMMIES, MAKING BABIES, BUILDING CITIES, EXPLORING SPACE, GOING TO THE MOON, AND PUTTING THE "CIVIL" IN CIVILIZATION SINCE 1776!

******************************

But I tell you this man, I tell you this, I carry an aura of "fuck you" everywhere I go and while I may not cause scenes I can sure as hell continue them and escalate them but good.

******************************

There is going to be a second revolution folks.

Count on it - and it will be the citizens against the government.

It will be damn bloody. It will be a war of attrition. It will result in over 100 million dead.

The heavy handedness of the government - the fascists in code enforcement and animal control especially - have brought this upon themselves.

Why should my kids bail them out as we go deeper into debt for the next generation to be stuck with.

Bond holders are upset? It is called bad investing. Why should my taxes pay?

Can you imagine if we peons lived beyond our means and asked the government to bail us out....

You know it never fails to amaze Me how stupid the government really is. I mean seriously it's the fucking pensions that are sucking up all the money and no one ever thinks about cutting them all 50%. The way I look at it retirees should have a damn house paid for but NOOOOO We have to tax the hell out of young families that are already struggling.

This might be ALOT worse than 73 billion...wait for the credit default swaps to kick in and ripple across the global markets.

Trump has no choice!

Far too many are up to their eyeballs in debt...After the first bail-out there will be a million others looking for a bail-out. Especially all of california and shitcago!

Exactly.

Shit holes like PR almost always come with a long history of libtardism. People in such places think, act and vote almost exactly like dumb-ass liberals in urban dystopias throughout America.
