As many as half a million people across Spain marched in protest of a labor reforms that they fear will abolish worker's rights. The intention of the reform is to enable companies to recover from the recent economic crisis and to create jobs, which is important because Spain has an extremely high unemployment rate of 23%. Although it has been said that the reform will create more jobs, no one has explained how and they have already taken away rights from workers. Many believe a general strike is inevitable to restore worker's rights.
