  • Regulated capitalism is still capitalism. There’s no such thing as “pure” or “impure” capitalism, the social relationships to capital are the same. Lassiez-faire capitalism is just a flavour of it.

    It’s like ice-cream: you may prefer chocolate ice-cream over vanilla ice-cream, but they are both flavours of ice-cream and you wouldn’t say “yea, that’s not pure ice-cream”. Some people may even dislike ice-cream altogether and prefer cheesecake.

















  • Spainiard here. You can drink tap water everywhere (that’s connected to the drinking water network, obviously), but there are better tasting waters than others. Madrid’s water is bad, Barcelona’s is atrocious (I don’t know anyone living there that doesn’t buy bottled water, it even gives weird flavours when cooking), but other places are nicer. My town’s water is awesome, I just fill up bottles from the tap and put them in the fridge for easy cold water and laugh at the camacus.
