I think that the monarchy is a beautiful thing. is the tradition and the cultural basis of that country.
until the monarchs do not abuse their powers, (if they have any) and not behave like dictators are more than welcome.
yes, is beautiful, cultural...In that sense I like it too....
the problem is when they are people who costs a lot of money to the tax payer, and they are unnecessary, I mean that they do not give any service to their country.
they give the image of royalty. and if they really were so unnecessary, they would be ousted long ago.
sorry, I do not agree dear...they are where they are by law, by inheritance...but if you let (at least in my country,
idk about other countries) if you let the people in Spain to vote if they want to keep having a monarchy,I can tell you...nobody likes the monarchy, they find it an unnecessary expense...I have spanish law books at home, and I tell you , the monarchy (I repeat again, at least in my country) is just SIMBOL, they do not have any kind of power (yes the power of earning 8 miilion euros each of them...) the only family that has babies non-stop is the royal family....(they earn money since the day they are born)
spanish people is going thru the worst of the economical crisis since the post-civil war, nobody buys houses, nobodoy has babies, more than 20% of unemployment,companies closing their doors,people losing their houses ...
there is no medicare for free anymore, medicines are not free anymore, hospital are firing doctors and health personal, and closing operating rooms,university are multiplyng by 3 their tuitions and some courses are disappearing...and Greece, Italy...you know are going thru terrible crisis too...
when that happens, I do not agree with keeping a royal family A SIMBOL...in this world lot of unfairy systems are being kept.
