188 Bad Bunny, Superbowl & Puerto Rico Statehood
from Unfiltered Society With Aaron Joy · host Aaron Joy
Following Bad Bunny performing in the 2026 Superbowl, these are my thoughts on his home country Puerto Rico. Why its not an official State but just a territory and a second class citizen where equality is important. It comes down to following the money trail. To be clear, Puerto Rico doesn't pay federal income tax, but they do pay the same federal medicare, social security, self-employment, unemployment, customs, and merchandise taxes the States.
