THE SIMPLE TRUTH OF THE CATALAN PROBLEM WITH SPAIN

Few times a state politics behaves in way so ignominious and false how he behaves the politics and the politicians national Spaniards with the Catalan identity, I believe that I am right in affirming that in the western world, there is not in any place a same situation in that a state and its politicians, cultivate the seed of the dislike and almost the hate among its governed, during years and years. In Spain the centralism of the state and of the politics of having either been dictatorial or democratic, it opposes a ferocious and almost visceral discrimination systematically, in front of the nationalism of a region, at the moment Spanish, like it is Catalonia. 

This action leans on in some totally false foundations, but very well basted by the force of the centrality of the state that dominates with its power the public opinion, with he believes it opinion tendencies that falsify enlarging or minimizing made of the reality with of the relationship among the two cultures, the Spaniard and the Catalan, being the first of these falsehoods denying the own existence of an own and older Catalan culture that the own Spanish nation. 

This reality inside Spain is very separatist, and he harms a lot of on the whole to the Spanish society, and believe a strange and curious confusion at least in the international context, nobody outside of here he understands it, if they understand it when you explain to it, and it is this last what they are not able to assimilate it. And I believe that here it happens to us the same thing, at least to who writes this I articulate, so I have been giving turns to the because of this reality, and I have reached the conclusion that all the reasons that the Spanish society assumes as harmful for her, are basically imbued by its politics and political, and they also go in address contrary to what you/they want to make them believe. 

It is not the problem that we have and let us use an own language, it doesn't care that our form of seeing the things is a different point, he doesn't have importance that here the bullfights have been prohibited, etc., the only thing that it cares in fact is that Spain could not maintain its economic status in the European context, if for those things of the life, Catalonia becomes independent economically and let us no longer say physically of Spain. He and the last governments and futures know or they realize quickly that Spain could not be sustained without Catalonia and on the contrary Catalonia if it would rot, already not to stay, but growing enormememente without Spain hit to the back. 

And this that I say is not neither a swagger neither a gratuitous nationalist pride, are a reality that doesn't want to accept the rest of the nation, I suppose that for not recognizing it, so that neither I understand, the things are like they are and I don't eat one he wanted that was, and this that is that simple. I don't know that the politics and the Spanish governments that persist in denying an evidence until the end of ending up opposing win to almost the whole Spanish society, against the Catalan who we sustain together with the community of Madrid better or worse to whole Spain. 

This is the reality Spain, the imperial one, the centralist, the conqueror, that that is "a big and free", cannot support to depend on a conquered region that stays strong in their beliefs and national identity that it doesn't assume as own the imposed global nationality, and that in spite of this insubordination, it cannot do without of their capacity and economic, venturesome, and nationalist force. This and not other motivations are the true sin Catalan nationalist. 

And this statement this position is to countersign him with data and for we will review it the reality of the Spanish economy. Alone there are three regions that are at the present time born taxpayers to the Spanish public treasure. These regions are: Madrid, Catalonia, and Balearic, all the other ones, (except Basque country and Navarre’s that we all know they go for free) they are receptors, that is to say they pay their taxes and then the state returns them more than what you/they have paid, with the purpose of being able to maintain its daily development, this difference comes from the taxes of these three regions net taxpayers. 

If they allow me then the license, it is clear that in fact Spain economically speaking is Madrid and Catalonia, (I omit Balearic because their size although contributive is very small) since both communities are almost even as for GDP and Inhabitants, we can say hypothetically that each one half Spain supports. And arrived here, is it clear the reason of the problem that Spain has with the Catalan nationality and if one day these Catalan don't want to be Spanish and do they get it? That will make with our "a big and free" Spain. 

He understands each other this way everything they don't find it, and it is understood because alone it is attacked to the Catalan nationalism, and not for example to Basque, because a thing is the police fight by reason of the terrorist band ETA, and another very different one the continuous knocking of the in solidarity, of attack to the Castilian, of the tendentious education, of the embassies in the exterior, of the politicians of the Generalitad, etc. that permanently suffer in Catalonia on the part of the press and the official politics of Spain. 

The thing this white, Basque don't enter in the economic game, incomprehensibly but it is this way, therefore to the purists of the Spanish nation, he gives them same that makes, but Catalonia is another thing, Catalonia he pays and a lot and this yes it is important this cannot get lost.
