Amid Spanish political parties’ struggle to form a government, people have taken to the streets in Madrid. The protesters say whoever comes into power in Spain must stop slashing the health care budget and privatizing a once reputable public health service. Meanwhile, Podemos and the Socialist Party, as well as other left wing factions, have pledged to protect the public healthcare system.
