Description
Our guests today are "representatives," as Mr. Buckley puts it, "of the three
positions" on Puerto Rico's future--"nonviolent representatives of the three positions, I might add." Each ably defends his position and informatively discusses matters such as the economy, taxation, and the minimum wage--with Mr. Camacho to add spice: WFB: "If in fact 39 per cent of [Puerto Rico's] per-capita income is being contributed by Stateside taxpayers, how do we transform this into an act of oppression against Puerto Rico?" LC: "Well, even in terms of social dependency, that's an aggression."
