As I recall, Archie Bunker was a believer in “tinkle-down economics.”

Cleared a multistorey residential building and landed in the backyard, but not even close to crossing the Kármán lone. No points.

To be fair we managed to do that with minimal budget and zero state grants.
How many USA billions did melon sunk to launch his car into space? 
Also, for the ones who listened to the podcast, is not a beret, is a txapela and is kinda the official basque hat. It looks like a beret from the front but it doesn’t taper in the back, is more like a mushroom.

So I listened to the rest of the podcast and certainly not bad. The guy missed some nuanced spots but there were no super glaring errors.
One of the nuances is that ETA was not going after any policemen. Their main targets was the Guardia Civil, an kind of paramilitary police. Things have changed a lot but during that time they were known for being one step removed of a death squad (it was also the place were many Civil War excombatants ended as a reward). So basically ETA was targeting military objectives, and for a long time people was okay with that (not like enthusiasticly, but you know what I mean) because everyone who was on the wrong side of the political spectrum knew someone who had been kidnapped and tortured by the GC.
Also I don’t exactly agree with him with the part “a pacted exit made spain not a democracy”. It is weakened by the pact and young, but there was no way an armed revolution would had happen in spain, not with the actors involved: as I mentioned in a previous post, USA and Kissinger specifically was very interested in the development of spain during the 70’s. Any leftist revolution a la portuguese claveles one would have been squashed inmediately with the help of our good american friends on the Rota base. Sometimes you have only shitty cards to play in your hand.

I worked with and befriended one of those people while living in London in the early 1980’s. All the men in his entire family: uncles, cousins, brothers, plus himself. When it got hot enough (construction) and he took off his shirt, his back was entirely crisscrossed with scar tissue from the knife cuts and other forms of torture. Such a sweet guy, too. If it wasn’t for knowing him, I wouldn’t have known anything about the situation because the British news sources were not covering it at all.
