The fiscal crisis in Puerto Rico, which constrains the ways in which the government can try to tackle the economic depression, is in important ways self-inflicted-the product of economic policies undertaken at the local level. When the crisis is approached in this way, the resolution of the island's colonial situation can be seen as a necessary but not sufficient condition for solving the problems of the depression's victims. La crisis fiscal en Puerto Rico, que limita las formas en que el gobierno puede potencialmente tratar de hacer frente a la depresión económica, es autoinfligida de manera importante: el producto de las políticas económicas implementadas a nivel local. Cuando se aborda la crisis de esta manera, la resolución de la situación colonial de la isla puede verse como una condición necesaria pero no suficiente para resolver los problemas de las víctimas de la depresión
