  • How Spain's economy became the envy of Europe
  • This is commendable, but there are some interesting take aways from the article:

    That modernisation process is being aided by post-pandemic recovery funds from the EU's Next Generation programme. Spain is due to receive up to €163bn by 2026 ($169bn; £136bn), making it the biggest recipient of these funds alongside Italy.

    At the height of the European energy crisis, Spain and Portugal also negotiated with Brussels a so-called "Iberian exception", allowing them to cap the price of gas used to generate electricity in order to reduce consumers' bills

    The heavy reliance on tourism - and a growing backlash against the industry by local people - is one concern.

    Another is Spain's vast public debt, which is higher , external than the country's annual economic output.

    With an uncertain and deeply polarised political landscape, it is difficult for SĂĄnchez's minority government to tackle such problems. But, while it attempts to resolve these conundrums, Spain is enjoying its status as the motor of European growth.

    Sounds like reasons for the economic stability are partially artificial and may not be long lasting.

  • Is there something wrong with sh.itjust.works?

    For a few days now if I use my sh.itjust.works profile comments are slow to load and often posts timeout and refuse to load at all. I even tried posting this question using my sh.itjust.works profile and it wouldn't post at all. Is there something up with their servers or something?
