[@ScotchCrisostomo]

The United States has and maintains territories like Guam, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico for various historical, political, and strategic reasons. Here's a breakdown of each: ### Guam 1. **Strategic Military Importance**: Guam is located in the Western Pacific and serves as a significant military base for the United States, offering a strategic position in Asia and the Pacific region. 2. **Historical Acquisition**: Guam was acquired by the United States as a result of the Spanish-American War in 1898. Since then, it has remained a territory due to its strategic value. 3. **Local Sentiment**: While there have been movements for self-determination, including statehood, independence, or free association, there hasn't been a decisive push towards statehood from the residents of Guam. ### Washington D.C. 1. **Constitutional Provisions**: The U.S. Constitution specifically establishes the District of Columbia as the nation's capital, which is separate from any state. This was designed to ensure that the capital would not be under the jurisdiction of any single state, maintaining neutrality. 2. **Political Implications**: Statehood for Washington D.C. would likely shift the political balance in Congress, as it would add two senators and a representative who might predominantly align with one political party. This has led to significant political debate and opposition. ### Puerto Rico 1. **Historical Context**: Puerto Rico became a U.S. territory following the Spanish-American War in 1898. It has since maintained a unique status as a commonwealth. 2. **Self-Determination**: Puerto Ricans have voted several times on the issue of statehood, independence, or maintaining the current status. The results have been mixed, with no clear consensus. Many residents value the current benefits of being a territory while others push for statehood or independence. 3. **Economic and Political Factors**: The economic implications of statehood, both for Puerto Rico and the U.S., have been a significant factor. Additionally, the political dynamics of adding a new state play a role in the hesitance to move forward with statehood. ### General Factors 1. **Economic Considerations**: Statehood can bring economic changes, including federal tax obligations and adjustments to federal funding. Territories often receive specific financial benefits that might change with statehood. 2. **Political Balance**: The addition of new states can alter the balance of power in Congress. This political consideration often influences decisions regarding statehood. 3. **Local Preferences**: The preferences of residents in these territories vary, and there isn't always a clear majority supporting statehood. Referendums and local votes often show divided opinions. In summary, the maintenance of territories instead of ratifying them into statehood involves a combination of historical context, strategic importance, economic considerations, political dynamics, and the preferences of the local populations.

You forget to say that trump is going to cut SSA benefits and medicare ,medicaid.

And benefits for Disabled Veterans.

[@Rare.Plants.and.Pitbulls]

False. He said he wouldn’t touch SSA and Medicare. Open the internet and do a search next time you decide to chime in.

[@Rare.Plants.and.Pitbulls]

Negative. You just made that up. He never said he would touch benefits for disabled veterans.

[@williamflack5767]

Trump doesn't draw social security. He paid into it. He said he didn't need it, and no pay for being president. Trump, our next president.

[@GreysShadow]

@@Rare.Plants.and.Pitbulls That would rob them of the pleasure of having someone else TELL them what to think.
