good to hear Madrid is going those good deeds. I hear horror stories from poor countries. people committing suicide because they simply can't make it.
Sure but in a democracy where the majority is supposed to rule that is fully justified. Big difference.
Lol, true, I noticed that, also the chauffeur might be a friend for all we know (it´s illegal to share a ride with a friend at the moment). But while Spain 1%er are quite a bit more modest than their US cousins, Salamanca where the protests started is the highest income neighbourhood of Madrid city, besides a very pleasant area to hang out.
Families as well as lone individuals locked in 24/7 minus to go shopping for essentials in small apartments with aggressive police waiting for them if they venture outside weeks on end, no education for kids, economic crisis for adults and a suspension of much of the public health care won´t help the suicide rates in Spain, but I haven´t seen any statistic published yet. Still the situation has relaxed quite a bit over the last few weeks, even in Madrid which along Barcelona are late in the deescalation process. Thanks !
