2014-11-05 SPAIN under the Greater Depression: Rampant government corruption!
=================
The current Greater Depression, like the Great Depression a century ago, originates in government corruption and failure to regulate banks and large corporations, who rob the people.
And the measures required to tackle the current depression must start in curbing government and banking regulation corruption...
Instead, Spain and other nations insitute austerity measures, which further abuse the vcitims, and enter agreements that submit their nations to the banks for the foreseeable future... jz

Corrupt Spanish politics faces shock therapy from an angry electorate
Being “between Pinto and Valdemoro” is an old Spanish saying that refers to being in trouble. Now with the number of politicians being investigated for corruption in Spain nearing 2,000, including the mayor of that very Valdemoro town of lore, you could say that the whole Spanish political class finds itself between Pinto and Valdemoro. And it’s not just in the size of the problem but its timing. Embezzlement of public funds is never received with enthusiasm but if there were ever a moment at which Spanish public opinion was bound to react angrily to this seemingly inexhaustible series of corruption scandals, it’s now, after three and a half years of government-inflicted austerity.
