95 por ciento<\/strong> de lo recaudado por conceptos de licencia y marbetes al Fondo de Retiro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u00abCon U$S5 mil marbetes a U$S1,5 mil anuales, m\u00e1s otros costos de licencia estamos hablando de cerca de U$$ 70.000.000 al a\u00f1o, de manera recurrente. Con la aprobaci\u00f3n de este proyecto ganan los peque\u00f1os y medianos comerciantes y gana la Polic\u00eda de Puerto Rico. Es as\u00ed de sencillo. Estamos agotados de elevar nuestros reclamos y no ver resultados, pero estamos confiados en que de una vez y por todas se logre destinar los fondos necesarios a nuestro retiro\u201d, sostuvo Figueroa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Se constat\u00f3 que los estimados de m\u00e1quinas existentes en la isla superan las 45.000 que la medida permitir\u00eda. Se entiende que los mismos se ubican en los 65.000 en circulaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El proyecto promueve y apoya a la industria local de m\u00e1quinas de juegos de azar en ruta. Una industria netamente puertorrique\u00f1a que genera miles de empleos directos e indirectos, y permite ingresos adicionales que sirven de salvavidas para los peque\u00f1os comerciantes en medio de una crisis econ\u00f3mica ocasionada por la pandemia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
