Going by their nonsense logic Barcelona should be independent from Catalonia since they are stealing its money because Barcelona gives more to them than it gets and since referendums should all be legal (or so they say) they should respect them if they want to go out form their own region. Next Cartagena should ask for independence again, and then Bavaria, and then California, and then Padania, and then Flandes, etc etc until every rich region is separated from heir countries, cause that's what democracy means apparently, more and more separation for egotistical reasons.

That people want something just because it's possible? Nah, that's not true at all.

Beating the shit out of people because they don't want to do what you say and share their wealth and would instead prefer to do their own thing independently sounds awfully familiar though... USSR is that you? :O

Like every country in existence does? Income tax? Social Security?

Again, sharing or not sharing wealth is an extremely poor reason and has no boundaries. There will always be people more wealthy that need to share some of their wealth with poorer people - even in Catalonia.
