3. The Spanish citizen has guts

"Those 400 wasted hectares were about to be auctioned off privately by the government when the Andalusian Workers' Union turned up in March 2012; they occupied it, were evicted by 200 riot police, and in true Marinaleda style, returned the next day to start again. The auction never took place."

Wow quiet a feet. We Americans need to learn how to come together like this. Capitalism is in ruins at our feet. We need to find a better economic system. I think Spain has some really good examples of what cooperation and democracy in the work place looks like and how it works. They also have the hugely successful co-op MONDRAGON Corporation. http://www.mondragon-corporation.com/language/en-US/ENG/Who-we-are/Organisational-structure.aspx A coop that is totally owned and controlled by the workers NOT CEOs and share holders.
