Dejad a la gente morir en sus pisos
En España no se puede empezar a vivir porque no tienes casa, ni se puede empezar a morir porque te echan de ella
Maricarmen Abascal passed away in her apartment, exposing the predatory system that has turned housing into a commodity for profit and speculation. Her eviction highlights not only this issue, but also the subsequent reactions that were contrary to the wave of solidarity. People were more interested in judging those who spoke out against the eviction, rather than addressing the root of the problem.
Maricarmen's savings and how she chose to use them were scrutinized, including the case of an anonymous citizen who was fined for paying an old rent, a mere dignified income. The moral judgment extended to her character, justifying her eviction. It raises the question of whether the new housing policy of the political parties PP and Vox will lead to evicting the homeless from their homes, without concrete evidence of Maricarmen's deserving status or an examination of the average citizen's savings and their usage.
