Spain's Angry and Unemployed Young Men

RealClearWorld - Spain's Angry and Unemployed Young Men:
"The oddest moment came when we reached a tollbooth not too far from Madrid.
There was only one booth open and when we pulled up there was no one in it and no coin or credit card slot. We waited, then we left.
Perhaps the attendant was in the bathroom.
Perhaps the revenue didn't justify paying a toll taker.
Perhaps this was one of the austerity measures they had taken.
I will never know.
What I do know is that the drive had a sort of post-apocalyptic feel, except that it was very clean. "
