Thanks for the insight. Everytime the news mentions Greece and how the financial problem might spread to Spain and Portugal next, I think about you. So what are your thoughts on immigration in Spain?

Everybody says Spain is coming next. Well, we'll see... I can't tell for sure

About inmigration. I have mixed feelings. In one hand I'm for the integration of foreign people. I belong to the school of "papers for everybody" as illegal inmigrants are more subject to abuse. When they're legal, they are like the rest of us.

The only thing I dislike is that a significant part is like our country 50 years ago: controlled by an absurdily interpreted religion, machist, against women and things like that. Even the latinamericans that come, who are supposely closer to us have a hard time to get rid of that.

But the process can't be stopped. So I guess that part of our society will go back while the rest goes further.
