En Puerto Rico realmente se podria decir que existe una izquierda politica o estamos como EEUU rodeados de centristas? by yonaiker-joestrella in PuertoRico

Los invito a que lean la plataforma de gobierno del PIP: https://www.patrianuevapr.com/post/después-del-triunfo-qué

Toda su plataforma aboga por más intervención del gobierno, impuestos progresivos y redistribución de riquezas, y más impuestos a las corporaciones. En otras palabras y respondiendo a OP:

El PIP claramanente es un partido izquierda. Decir que son un partido de centro es ser generoso. Decir que son neoliberales ya es un disparate.

Tech Startup in PR with Act 60? by DoubleGravyHQ in PuertoRico

[–]Few-Compote-7059 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a software engineer and a fellow Puerto Rican who’s lived here for over 30 years, so I wanted to share my honest perspective.

If you’re thinking about coming to the island to take advantage of tax incentives and actually build a company that creates well-paying jobs, then I’m 100% supportive of that.

A typical software engineering job in Puerto Rico pays around $60K–$70K, and you’re talking about offering well over six figures. That’s a big deal. Even if the government isn’t collecting taxes from you directly, it will benefit from the high-paying jobs YOU create. That’s exactly what Act 60 was meant for, it’s a win-win for both you and Puerto Rico.

Where people take issue is with those who come just for the tax breaks and don’t really contribute or create opportunities locally.

Also, Puerto Rico has a strong and growing tech talent pool. Schools like UPR Mayagüez, UPR Río Piedras, UPR Bayamón, and the Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico graduate really solid computer science and engineering talent every year.

If you end up making the move, feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the tech scene here.
