Will US grant PR statehood?

Half of the Puerto Ricans in Puerto Rico want the United States (US) to admit Puerto Rico as the 51st state of the Union. That will never happen, even if 100% of Puerto Ricans were to want that!

The US is the champion of imperialism. The world considers the US as the biggest threat to peace, and the one that is unilaterally pushing the Doomsday Clock to midnight. 

In a recent United Nations (UN) vote for the resolution for an International Day Against Colonialism in All Its Forms and Manifestations, the US and Israel voted against it. It is important to mention the both the US and Israel are colonial settler states, which committed genocide against the indigenous people in order to create their artificial nations. So, why then would anybody believe that the US is interested in giving Puerto Ricans equality? 

Those Puerto Ricans say that statehood is the best way for them to get full  equality under the American flag. But not even US citizens living in the 50 states enjoy liberty and justice for all!

Today, almost 40 million Americans live in poverty, and 201 million more live from paycheck to paycheck, while 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are Americans too.

The US Empire has maintained Puerto Rico as its colony for the past 127 years, by consistently refusing to comply with 43 UN resolutions demanding the immediate return of Puerto Rico's sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. 6 million Puerto Ricans have abandoned their national territory (gentrification), and almost half of the 3 million people in Puerto Rico also live in poverty.   

Nevertheless, the US deceptively claims today to support Taiwan's inalienable right to self-determination and independence, only to try to justify a war against the People's Republic of China in order to colonize her too. 

China, whom the US calls authoritarian, eradicated poverty, despite having 4 times the US' population, and having 11 trillion dollars less than the US. Today, the bottom half of Chinese live two times better than the bottom half of Americans. Over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with their one party communist political system, while only 35% of Americans are satisfied with their multiparty "democratic political system".

The US only wants WIN-LOSE relationships!
