@Ap0ske Try to learn some true history from two great EU leaders both very close to you: Lech Walesa and Vaclav Havel. Find out why Walesa REFUSED to meet the Idol of entire W EU (and NOT E EU) , by the name Barack HUSSEIN Obama, when the guy visited PL about 2 weeks ago.

Good Luck.

@401RoadWarrior Haha, I got a good laugh out of this. If anything, you've only cemented my belief that conservatives neither have any good arguments nor care about other people's opinion.

Happy life on the road to you!

@Ap0ske OK kid, stick with the school, girls and whatever nintendo you kids play these days, leave the politics to grown-up ppl, ok?

Have a nice life.

@Ap0ske Also, Cuba was just an example for the fact that you can't always link unemployment to socialism.

[Ap0ske]

@401RoadWarrior Arrogance of age, eh? I know of the madrid bombings, and I know that both the PP's and the PSOE's reaction was everything but appropriate.

I find it funny that you start to argue about the name of a party not dictating how the economy functions, because so far, that's been exactly what your entire argument has been built on (since I haven't seen any reason why the gov. of Spain is so "socialist" other than the PSOE having "Social" in their name).

@Ap0ske You don't mind??? you MUST listen to them, to those that lived in dictatorships, I lived 27 YEARS in communist RO before defecting to the West, you're a kid, 16 yo, my kids are older than you. Spain has had a SOCIALIST gov in power since the Madrid bombings of 2003, google that. And it's not the name of the party that dictates how the economy functions, it's the policy that makes a country great or a shit, ok?

Cuba? Have you ever lived in a place where everything is OWNED by the state?

[Ap0ske]

@401RoadWarrior I don't mind if people show connections like these. But I think it's wrong to exclusively link "socialist governments" (which spain just doesn't have) with high unemployment rates.

Take Ireland for example. Their Conservative Christian Party occupies 50% of the government cabinet, yet the unemployment rate is as high as 14,8%.

Also, what about Cuba? Their unemployment rate is as small as 2%. And I think we can both agree that cuba is much more socialist than spain.

@Ap0ske So you ARE a SOCIALIST and you don't like when ppl show the connection btwn SOCIALISM and high unemployment, Spain in this case.

Nothing is free in CDA, healthcare is "free" for some products (paid thru high income and sales tax) and not free for others like drugs, dentist, chiropractic and many others, education free until you need college or university, you PAY for college or university, up to $5K/year for a very good university.

Again, a CONSERVATIVE gov in CDA when in Spain?

[Ap0ske]

@401RoadWarrior

Canada and Spain both have public social health care. In CDA, private insurance for certain health services is banned (preventing a two-tier health care system like there is in SPAIN).

In both CDA and Spain, education until the age of 16 is state-funded. Spain spends 11,3% of it's total yearly budget on education, CDA 12,7%.

Spain's government is in NO WAY more socialist than CDAs and public care services are far lower than i.e. in germany (foruth largest GDP in the world!)

@Ap0ske CDA, for the last 5 years plus the next 4+ as well: a CONSERVATIVE gov with totally opposite socio-economical policies than Spain's SOCIALIST gov in power since 2003, so: our national unemployment is 7.4% and for the youth 15%, lots of Spaniards, Portuguese as well, working illegally in Toronto, mostly construction work, CDA's economy very little affected by the global economical crisis, wonder why?

I personally have ZERO sympathy for ppl who elect SOCIALIST governments.
