While everyone was distracted with NFTs and JFK files, Congress passed a bill to allow tax-sucking Puerto Rico to hold a binding referendum on its status.

Don't blame the people, they have no say. The corruption in PR has been going on forever. Blame the Congressmen and Senators of the US who hold stock in trade companies that do business and keep the Johnson Act in effect when it hasn't been needed since the world wars ended. They insist on keeping it and of course they own tons of shares of stock in the shipping companies. They wont allow a foreign ship to enter so all cargo has to be offloaded in Miami then reloaded onto US ships increasing the price of everything as well as their profits. The tax haven for crypto fucks was installed by the US also. They have been doing horrible things for decades. Billions given for Hurricane Maria and still nothing is done and the money went missing. Its a horrible situation for the island. They lose regardless of what happens.
Your right the people lose and the gov is corrupt. And after the hurricanes no help to the actual people in need there. My husband is from PR and family still there.
