If You're Not Watching Puerto Rico, You're Missing a Glimpse of the Future


They lie, cheat, and steal? No way!

In 2014, Puerto Rico issued $3.5 billion in bonds backed by the full faith and credit of the Commonwealth. Now the island's fiscal managers, a group known as the PROMESA board, an entity that Congress created, claims those bonds are worthless.

While investors put down their hard-earned cash to buy the bonds, the board members have claimed in court that, because the debt issuance put the island over its legal debt limit, the debt should be canceled.

Note that the board isn't asking to reverse the transaction – as in, give investors their money back. They are lobbying to erase the debt so that the Puerto Rican government keeps the funds and the investors get stiffed.

Investors are fighting back, but chances are the oversight board will win.

Detroit did the same thing in 2014, and Chicago looks like it could be next on the hit list.

The oversight board claims that zeroing out these investors while paying others $0.45 to $0.55 on the dollar is the way to bring Puerto Rico back to financial stability.

But debt isn't their only problem.

Facebook's New Cryptocurrency Probably Offers You Nothing

New Jersey, You MUST Buy Electric Vehicles

The state of New Jersey is putting a stake in the ground. Or rather, a stake through the hearts of taxpayers and citizens. But that's nothing new. Anyway, Governor Phil Murphy recently announced the state government's goal to reduce carbon emissions 80% by 2050, compared with the 2006 levels. That's great. He plans to do...
