Budget
I added a "budget" section to the Puerto Rico article. It's sort of a cross between fiscal status and political status, but it's the best I could do since fiscal is not my forte. Perhaps you can check it out. In particular a gov budget of $8.5B seemed just too low to me, but perhaps not. I was motivated by the fact that the word "budget" was not mentioned even once in teh entire article. Mercy11 ( talk) 18:08, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
- I have been thinking about something similar but for the financial crisis. Maybe something like "Public debt" under the Economy section would be better (see Greece and United States). We can incorporate the GAO report to the political status section which is better suited there. Regarding the budget, it's a little bit more complicated because Puerto Rico has "two" budgets: the "General Budget" which is about $8.5B as you mentioned, and the "Consolidated Budget" (the one that encompasses everything at about $29B USD [1]). Check out Budget of the Government of Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico General Fund, and Puerto Rico Consolidated Fund. — Ahnoneemoos ( talk) 19:05, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Hey—I stumbled upon Wikipedia:Notability (fictional characters) and it looks like a stale draft. Wanted to leave you a note so perhaps you'll mark it for deletion. Take care czar ♔ 01:36, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
