Puerto Rico will never become a state imo(for one the current status seems to be favored by a majority of the island's residents ). It seems only statehood is favored by Puerto Rican's living in the mainland United States.

Also, given the seriousness of Puetro Rico's problems-a debt crisis, endemic political and police corruption, a stagnant economy(it would also have the highest poverty rate of any U.S. state if it became one-far surpassing M.S.) and a haven for drug trafficking amongst many others. Why would such a development be allowed to occur?
