Cree usted que Zapatero puede sacar a España de la crisis?

¿Cree usted que Zapatero puede sacar a España de la crisis?

¿No es una pregunta demasiado simplista para un tema tan complejo?

¿Cree Usted que la banca española es tan sólida como finge ser? ¿Cree Usted que la banca española está tratando a sus clientes como debería tratarlos?
¿No cree Usted que a España le ha venido como anillo al dedo la crisis mundial, ya que le ayuda a ocultar la crisis nacional que han provocado TODOS los gobiernos en España debido a su avaricia y su pensamiento en plazos legislativos, pero no nacionales?
¿Hubo alguna inversión a medio o largo plazo en España que no hubiera sido por prestigio? ¿… algo sólido?
(Aquí ya hay una bifurcación de temas y pensamientos y se puede extender al infinito.)

Hablando de “sólido” … me recuerda de una “casa”, que según hemos aprendido desde niños con los “tres cerditos” debería de ser sólida: Pues yo le doy 15 años más a los “maravillosos edificios” del “boom” inmobiliario de estos últimos años y veremos que los tenemos que echar abajo por la pésima calidad de obra (si el apartamento que estoy estrenando después de un mes se está cayendo a pedazos, creo que estoy duchándome con la vecina cada mañana y estoy pagando 700€ al mes en un pueblo de 70.000 habitantes … el alquiler es más del doble de lo que pagué en una ciudad de 500.000 habitantes en Alemania hace poco por un apartamento del mismo tamaño). 
El deterioro tal vez nos proporcione un segundo “boom” inmobiliario … pero si no, pues mandemos España a África que serán muy parecidos en 15 años, si las cosas siguen así y no salimos del “politiqueo” sin atrevernos de enfrentar un problema “juntos”, “a nivel nacional” – como ambos partidos dicen querer (mientras sea bajo su sigla).

¡Accionismo desesperado al fin y al cabo NO substituye la falta de ideas! Sea del bando que fuera.

Country of the useless

Is there any service her ein Spain that works at least acceptably well?

Social Security: is a chaos without end. The doctors they employ are absolutely useless, with a few exceptions, so they can call themselves "the best social security in the world" - yes they do!!! ... and they believe it! I have stopped being self employed in NOVEMBER 2008 ... I got billed again automatically yesterday (January 30th 2009) ... they just stole money from me two months in a row!

Fiscal Advisors: I had asked my fiscal advisor (who has no legal liability!) to proceed with taking me off the Social Security in November last year. Has he done his job?

Telefónica de España: (to cut an even longer story short) bloody useless bunch of criminals! I have not got invoices for almost half a year, therefore (after they had billed me for services they have not done in the first invoice), I have not allowed them anymore to have a direct debit on my bank account. I moved ... they left me without a telephone for six weeks in a row, I still had to pay for the bloody service, and no letter attached to anything.

After months of not having paid old bills where I never got the invoices for (having requested them several times!), I have got a summary bill. OK. PLUS another one for 346,27€, without any explanation. Payable: "on reception".

I called asked what this second bill was for. Nobody could tell me. So I told them I was going to pay the outstanding invoices with my next salary (salaries are usually paid in the beginning of the month, at least here in Western Europe). YESTERDAY (29th of January) I got my landline cut off. 

Again I called, knowing why I have been cut off, but asking. ... and then I enquired about the additional invoice without explanation and have been told: "this is a warranty deposit you have to pay to Telefónica, once you have paid your invoices you get it back."

How stupid do these morons think I am? My outstanding invoices were less then the "warranty deposit" ... and does anybody think you would get any money back from a company that does not even have the dignity of sending out invoices or when getting a complaint reacting to it? :-)

BANKS: ... another of my favourite topics in Spain ... the only one I have nothing to say about for now is the postal services, as they don't exist, well nothing to complain about. I have just been trying to make an online transfer with "Santander" one of the biggest banks in the world (as Spaniards believe and say). Well their online banking almost never works. Last month I called to tell them about it. So they told me I had to use bloody IE, otherwise they could not guarantee the service. I had opened an accoutn with "patagon" ages ago (remember this friendely online bank?), specially because they at the time did NOT force clients to work with bloody IE, and now a couple of years later, a big spanisch bank buys them (one of the biggest in the world as they say and believe) and "gone are the days". So I used bloody IE ... but it still does not work! I could not make the transfer! I got an Error Message, telling me I had to put a cell phone numer in, so they could send me an SMS ... but on the whole site there is nowhere yyou could edit your presonal data (you have to do it over the phone!) ... when I opened the account years ago, I filled in all the data online and that was it. AMAZING SPANISH TECHNOLOGY IS WORKING INVERTED!
