All what the Spanish families are paying is the corruption of their politics and the interests of the debts that some private firms arranged with and foreign banks that took their chances, before the crisis, lending money to Spain. The Merkel-miracle has been to force Spain to pay the debts with German banks who should have accepted their losses, that's what capitalism is: you risk lending money and either you win or either you lose and fall; but in the current Europe if you risk and lose, you fall; but if you are German and you lose lending money to the South then all the southerner families have to pay the debts than they DIDN'T take. I know many Germans that know what's going on and read and know about economics, I guess you're not of them. Calling who to pay?

The country has far too many vacant homes as it is.  Evictions don’t help getting the mortgage paid either. The country has far too many vacant homes as it is.
