Actors against ETA and PP

Yesterday, some actors, directors and musicians (that are famous basically in Spain), held a public conference to support Government, and express their negative opinion about Basque terrorists and Spanish conservative party (PP, currently in the opposition).

We support the freedom of speach of everyone. And we understand that the political beliefs of a musician or actress are usually noisier, though not more interesting or correct than any other.

In fact, we understand that being a good performer or writer does not provide a sharper intelligence or knowledge, not to mention an ethical superiority.

On the other hand, Spanish government is preparing a law to force citizens to pay some more taxes in order to guarantee a minimum income for actors, directors and musicians.

It is held that both issues are not related.
