Should Puerto Rico Become a State?

Apparently this is coming up again in Congress. Congress is doing it the right way - they are voting in order to give the vote up to the Puerto Ricans, and then, since that vote is non-binding, they will re-vote in the future to meet their wishes.

Still, I do not see how it is necessarily a bad thing. I suppose it runs the risk of soaking up more government resources, and we do not get to have that nifty 50 number, which has served us well (though there are a few states I'm willing to drop to make room for Puerto Rico). Still, it has been part of the US for years, to the point where you do not even need to have a passport to visit it. I think it may be time to add it to the list.
