The resident, who identifies as majariego, recounts how, upon urgently needing a copy for a neighborhood meeting, he encountered this price. This stands in stark contrast to the 0.20 cents charged at another copy shop, Copygraf, located on Santa María de la Cabeza. This incident has reignited discussions about price variations for basic services and the city's economic evolution.
The author reflects on the transformations of Majadahonda since its beginnings in 1979, evolving into a middle-class city. He cites Galdós to illustrate the aspiration towards the middle class and criticizes the lack of certain facilities, such as municipal swimming pools and adequate auditoriums. He specifically mentions the Carmen Conde Theater and the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium, the latter described as a "national botch" due to its acoustic inoperability.
The reflection on prices also extends to other services, like binding, where significant differences between establishments are noted. The text concludes with a quote from José María González-Sinde, "Long live the middle class!", and a reference to the saying "Find out, Vargas", inviting contemplation on the value of services and the local economy.
