Today, Catalonians are voting for independence as grawling across the Spanish province ensues.

I have a cousin there who's pro-seperatist. He says in half broken english that the riot police and the people are in a panic. One minute clip from him and I hear whistles, guns, rocks being thrown, angry people and crying people.

This has been a pressure bomb waiting to explode.

Catalonia is one of the richest provinces of Spain. But with its own language and kinda different culture, add that to extreme number of xenphobia driven by a huge number of tourists, that pretty much paints Catalonia's situation.

Also I think they are going to try another subsitute for capitalism if they win. I think its called syndicalism.
