That there is corruption in Puerto Rico regarding conrtacting for rubbish removal and Federal Funds doesn't surprise me.

I'm not surprised that there is gambling in the Fiat casino.

Puerto Rico for some reason can't handle is own garbage after 400 years of being Puerto Rico? The reason it can't handle government and garbage is that Puerto Rico is not a sovereign state. It's an asset for money laundering, crime and all sorts of nonsense.

Are theyPuerto Rican people unable to governmen themselves? No. But like many places on this planet corruption and easy money make it an attractive task for individuals who are psychotic to ascend the ranks, control the power and have Uncle Sam, The IMF or some Daddy State bless them with Federal Money to keep the graft running.
