Citigroup Drove Puerto Rico Into Debt. Now It Will Profit From Privatization on the Island.

 

 One of the same banks that drove the Puerto Rico Electric Power
Authority into the red will now be paid to help auction it off to the
highest bidder.

 PREPA employee Jose Colon Maldonado waits for Governor Ricardo Rossello and staff from the army engineers corps to take a tour thru the facilities of the Palo Seco Thermal Power Plant, which the Electric Power Authority plans to activate in order to energize different areas of the metropolitan area, 28 days after the passage of hurricane Maria, in Catano, Puerto Rico, Wednesday, Oct. 18, 2017. A month after Hurricane Maria rolled across the center of Puerto Rico, power is still out for the vast majority of people as the work to restore hundreds of miles of transmission lines and thousands of miles of distribution lines grinds on.
