Corruption in the Catalan government

El País eleva a 1,4 millones los pagos que hizo la Generalidad en 2007 a personas afines.

It seems that andalusian and extremeno people are not the only ones that know how to waste the money hardly earned by the Spanish workers and enterpreneurs.

As explained in the article above in Libertad Digital, the Catalan government also accomplishes successfully what the political class does better: wasting and misappropriating the money of the taxpayers. Please read and open your eyes to how corrupt all governments are if citizens give them any opportunity.

As I know that lots of you will simply ignore whatever appears in the "right-wing" papers, please do not hesitate to check out the mentioned article in El Pais. Since it is a socialist paper, it is much more forgiving with the offenders (former friends!!) and it does not explicitely recognise that the problem starts with the overgrowth of the government, but at least its ironic beginning is a step in the right direction.

La Generalitat de Cataluña tiene 140.000 funcionarios, más de 200 empleados eventuales y otros tantos altos cargos. Sin embargo, tanto personal parece insuficiente para que el Ejecutivo logre organizarse y proyectar su imagen externa. El Pais (29/03/2008)


We should fight our corrupt governments and the most efficient way is by reducing the burden of a government to the strictly necessary. I shall do it.

Love and freedom.
