Well that is the main industry in Spain and they have to figure out a solution that accomodate tourists. They do not have major industries, mining or tech companies and tourism is the future of Europe, thus they must make investments to be able to handle a larger number of tourists while not disrupting the residents living there.


Don't they make weapons for the Saudis, and trains for Bahrain? That was the big kerfuffle that led the old King to leave, his mistress was the conduit for bribes, she got a nice millionaire condo in London, and gave an interview noticing how the King really loved her.

Spain does have major industries still, unlike Portugal.


I see the Disrupt movement has matured. Too bad the plan all along was to stick someone else with the externalities.
