Yeah, I never really thought about it before, but I was listening to the bodega boyz podcast a couple weeks ago and they said that next to West Virginia, the Bronx has the second highest opioid related deaths in 2017, but since the people are affected are people of color, and the deaths are related to dog food, it doesn’t get the coverage.
2017 GOP Tax Cut & Jobs Act: Republican majorities to vote on extension in 119th Congress before expiration on 12/31/25

The new tax plan treats companies on the island the same as those operating outside the U.S., subjecting them to a tax of up to 12.5 percent on intellectual property.
Even if he can get the tax changes fixed and pick up other legislative wins, Rosselló said he intends to stick to his plan. His office has begun cataloging Puerto Ricans and Latinos living on the mainland to see where they can have an impact.
So far, he figures they can sway congressional district votes in 14 states, including Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas. He pointed to the influence of Florida’s 2.7 million Cuban-Americans, a powerful and well-organized constituency.

Yeah I know. That's a perfect example of what he wants to do because they have a cobra clutch on Florida politics.

More like most banks are doing away with low level bank tellers and relying on machines so this means nothing. If you only have 5 employees instead of 20 cause of automation of course you can raise their salary.
