The Conte government, being made up of two certainly non-revolutionary parties that have gathered great popular consensus and precisely by virtue of this they govern, without a doubt, no one will make Italy leave the EU and the euro, it will not give the country a sovereign currency, it will not close ties with NATO and will not bring about an epochal revolution. To achieve these objectives, Italians should have voted for the parties that proposed them, and they existed both in this and in past electoral cycles, but they remained at a standstill with percentages in the order of zero point, demonstrating unequivocally how the “revolution” at least at this moment it is not in the minds of the people who clearly consider it a leap in the dark.
Despite this, the Conte government, for the first time since Craxi's ouster, he is proving to take care of the problems of Italians, instead of banks, of the spread, of the markets, of what Europe asks of us and all the other amenities that have characterized the unique thinking of all previous executives….
For the first time in Italy (in other European countries it has existed for decades) we are talking about citizenship income for the increasingly large group of unfortunates excluded from the world of work, whereas previously, at most, alms were given, often directed precisely at those who had the job.
For the first time, a battle is being waged against the trafficking of human beings that pimps like to call hospitality, while previously the only concerns concerned the approval of the ius soli and the protection of the interests of Coops and NGO smugglers.
For the first time there is a project to raise the pensions of the unfortunates forced to rummage through bins to a decent level, at the same time reducing the size of the golden pensions of those who live like a sultan on the backs of the INPS, spitting in the face of poverty, while previously pensioners with social cards were made fun of and the intention was to make the elderly work until 70 years while young people remained unemployed.
For the first time an independent commission is appointed, tasked with carrying out a serious cost/benefit analysis on the large infrastructures that should be built over the next few years, while previously the cost/benefit analysis (often ridiculous) it was done by those who would have earned billions by building the work itself.
For the first time, the precarious employment that all previous executives had lovingly pampered from the creation of the Biagi law onwards is being attacked.
For the first time there is talk of tax reduction, whereas previously taxes just increased, because Europe had asked us to do so.
For the first time, the problem of Equitalia's files that it sends every year is seriously addressed “under the bridges” tens of thousands of Italian families, whereas previously any poor person was a tax evader and that was it, worthy of being thrown into the middle of a street and perhaps even exposed to public ridicule.
For the first time Italy makes its voice heard in Europe, while previously he had never experienced a verb that went beyond a laconic yes sir.
And the list if we had (you and me) time could continue for a long time, because the “first times” there are so many and they concern the most disparate fields.
Certainly the way in which the Conte government is addressing the problems in question can be perfected, certainly without a sovereign currency the investments will not be as necessary. By remaining under the yoke of the EU, the room for maneuver is certainly extremely limited, certainly we could do better and we could do more, However, it is an indisputable fact that until the birth of the Conte government, no one has ever done anything to solve the problems of Italians..
Precisely for this reason I cannot help but be astounded by the plethora of anti-Italian beggars who, chorusing the mainstream media and the great national and supranational powers, spit venom against the executive on a daily basis, citing the most varied reasons, but always with one point in common, deeply detest this country and root for those who want it to be reduced like Greece.
There are those who come from the left and those who come from the right, those who consider stopping human trafficking to be racism, those who consider citizenship income a gift to beggars, chi “without monetary sovereignty nothing can be done”, those who put markets and spreads above human life, chi “we need to invest in infrastructure and not in salaries and pensions”, those who consider legitimate defense a fascist act, those who consider the poor people crushed by Equitalia to be dangerous tax evaders, who wants the shops to be open even at night because everyone else works there anyway, those who just protest because Di Maio or Salvini or both are on their ass, who parrots the nonsense experienced by Repubblica or the Giornale, who is anti-Italian and that's it, because he feels like a citizen of a world without borders where he can do things (if you have money and he has it) whatever the fuck you want, not caring about everyone else who is racist, fascists and they didn't understand anything.
