Freedom for Puerto Rico! Why is it still a territory of the USA? Why are they not their own country? Like the Philippines?

We used to have many territories, Like Hawaii, Alaska, The Philippines, Guam, American Samoa, US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico... but we gave Statehood to some, independence to others... 

Think about the Hurricane rebuilding efforts in The Dominican Republic, Haiti and Cuba. The were hit by Hurricane Maria just like Puerto Rico was. 

I have no idea at all what they are doing and I don't care... It's their own country and they are doing whatever they are doing and I wish them good luck... just don't ask the USA for any help.

We ought to grant freedom for Puerto Rico and let them solve their own problems, or not... whatEVER! 

I really like the Musical "West Side Story" by Leonard Bernstein. I see that a benefit recording of the song "Maria" was approved by the Bernstein family in order to generate some money for Puerto Rico Disaster Relief. Great Idea! It's a classic story with many EPIC songs. It tells that tale of a romance between a Puerto Rican Woman and a Polish man and the troubles of Dating outside your ethnic group... The Same story as Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare... It also explores the problems of Teenagers and Gang Violence during the 1950s in New York City.
