Seems like I voted for a Bosch. Well that’s Catalan enough, innit. I don’t suppose the burghers of Sarrià or the hookers of Universitat will mind that much either way.
Please excuse my accental mayhem. I meant Sárríá, of course.

Lease parts of the country to the Chinese. As Greeks and Phoenicians deployed colonies in Iberia, so in coastal areas sizeable chunks of land ( the whole province of Valencia comes to mind ), could be leased to Chinese enterprises. No taxes, no Spanish labor law, only Spanish Penal Code enforced by judges under King’s control, no national or autonomous parliament or government involved.
And I mean it. Indeed.
I think it’s an excellent idea. In the general context of The East Strikes Back, I occasionally wonder whether http://oreneta.com/kalebeul/2005/12/30/when-javans-ruled-spain/ was predictive rather than retrospective.
