<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 550043, member: 11521&quot;]Since 1917 persons born in Puerto Rico are full citizens of the US. From <a href="http://www.puertorico-herald.org/issues/vol3n24/Citizenship-en.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.puertorico-herald.org/issues/vol3n24/Citizenship-en.html" rel="nofollow">The Citizens Educational Foundation</a>:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>While Puerto Ricans cannot vote in Presidential elections they do have a voice in the Congress. Puerto Ricans do not pay any Federal Income Tax although they do pay FICA taxes (that&#039;s Social Security taxes). </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It would be interesting to know how many federal dollars flow to Puerto Rico for every dollar they sent to Washington. I am willing to bet they receive a lot more than they contribute.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
