It took a British judge to put the breaks on this Spanish scum called Ferran Intersting country Spain, that is. Take the case of the preposterous president of the Spanish Buisness Organization Díaz Ferrán . To those he presides he has been giving the following example: 8 months without paying the employees of his company Air Comet who also owes 17 Million Euros. By now you can figure out yourself that during these 8 months the inept spanish government and the equally inept local municipality did not bother to do anything about this scum bag. Finally some judge in the UK had to do something about him!!!!!! My Goodness!! READ THE FULL ARTICLE HERE trackback dariointernet.com

Spain's Banks Enter the Real Estate Market Lots of noise, little substance dariointernet.com Summary : 2009 The Quality of journalism in Spain is rather low if compared with that of journalism in the United States. For example, recently Spain's printed media published front page articles announcing with maximum flair and excitement that Spain's banks have entered the Real Estate Market offering apartments with major discounts . I would think a journalist before writing such garbage, should go and check if what the banks claim is actually happening! But since they didn't bother to check, I did it myself.

This is the real snapshot of Spain . During the debate ZP as he is called over here, announced his measures to pull Spain out of the crisis.

YOu tell me: What would encourage you to buy a home? . Here I am, having worked since my sophomore year in college and now I am approaching midlife and I still don't own a home. What would encourage me to buy a home is having money in my pocket. A nice measure, would be ...

2009 Spain Electrical Bill Pure suit and tie robbery dariointernet.com There have been recent changes to the electrical bill that spaniards receive. Originally the bills were once every two months, but starting February 2009 they are billing once a month. AND they have hiked up the rates officially 15%. That's officially, but in practice it looks like the bill has doubled . Here is my bill for just 1 month usage: It is 78 Euros for just one month. We are talking 78Euros for one month for a tiny studio apartment for a single working person who is not home half the time!!!!! Other people with actually families have received $300 Euro charges. My landlord first announced the amount to me over the phone. Then when she came to collect the money, she goes: "¿Se te ha pasado el disgusto?" ( i.e. Have you gotten over it?.) This is pure suit & tie robbery . These companies executives are the highest paid, then they go asking ...
