Transport strike strikes all Spain


Tomorrow I am going to saw all the trees in the city so the streets are unusable, then I am going to go house by house and put chewing gum into every lock, when finished with this I’ll go straight to someone else’s house and park my car in front of their garage door,… all that because I do not agree with oil prices. Oh! Sorry I can’t do that! I’ll go straight to jail! Wait… I don’t really get it, if some people is doing it in Spain and feel proud about, how come I can-t do it myself? Oh! Yes! It IS illegal! And it sadly shows an individualism dangerously close to I-just-care-about-me attitude. Not just them, the whole country is paying indirectly and many people directly, so as yourself why taxes that everyone pay should just benefit a really small percentage of the population?

It is great that someone uses their right to strike if they believe that a revindication is worth it. That is one think, but you canNOT screw a whole country that, by the way, is suffering as much as you for the same reason, just because you think your cause is morally superior to the reasons the rest of the country might have, or just because you have the means to do it (trucks).Dixit.
