I’m excited for Spain, to see how this pans out, but I’m also very afraid for them since this kind of thing tends to attract attacks from international capital and finance (they might withhold credit and demand that the policy be rescinded, or simply refuse to invest in Spanish businesses, etc). Or they might simply pour funding into the political enemies of whoever was most in favor of this policy. But there will definitely be some form of recrimination. They’ve nationalized their health industry too. At least they’re not seizing natural resources, that would probably prompt some kind of right wing coup.
