From the shitshow Spain put out on the BBC in their interview the other day this outcome seemed inevitable. The guy basically said "they shouldn't have an election because they'll lose and that's why they shouldn't even bother having this illegal vote at all". People need to remember how shitty Spain's economy is/was after the 2008 collapse. People talked about them in the same breath as Greece, Italy, and Ireland.
- Kathee_HDS 9y agoPeople ought to know we're still deep under the rubble of the collapse, and most of us need two, even three jobs, to earn just enough to live by. They ought to know that Spain government has been siphoning funds out from the pension funds, and under the pretense of solidarity between communities are making the richer autonomies pay for everything that should be paid with the money they're using to further their own agendas, pay lobbies for a position after they retire, and putting people of their families as assistant in a way that reeks of nepotism, just to enrich themselves. People should know the Government of Spain has declared the millions funneled to rescue the banks as lost without hope of ever getting anything back, all the while kicking people out of their mortgaged houses which they can't pay for thanks to the late laws on working rights passed with absolute majority by this same government without ever consulting the citizens. They should know, but very few headlines ever talk about that, because the local media is in debt to the banks who profit from dealing with the government in this fantastic, incorruptible country.
