Flat tax and minimum income, what will be in the maneuver

The government is testing the budget law: “Flat tax and minimum income not alternatives, but we will keep accounts in order”
Of Chiara Sarra
“We will make Italians smile”. After the majority summit in view of the economic maneuver.
Luigi Di Maio reassures “the markets and above all families with unemployed children and parents who are unable to retire or have grandparents who have a minimum pension”.
“Citizenship income and flat tax are not alternatives”, promised the M5s deputy prime minister, speaking of the measures most dear to the two souls of the government. Just before a Radical Radio he had talked about one “Copernican revolution in spending Italians' money”: “All the available resources are starting to be spent on a country that for years has seen the money go to the banks and instead now it is starting to be spent on the Italians”, he explained. The whole thing – promises – “with a courageous budget law that will keep the accounts in order”: “The objective is to implement economic measures, do not challenge Europe on the accounts”.
The maneuver will still contain – they assure from Palazzo Chigi – all economic issues addressed by the contract. “Citizenship income must be included in the Budget Law, the overcoming of Fornero, aid to businesses”, Di Maio said, “All this is possible if we start changing the paradigm, if we put citizens at the center. Fare citizen's income in Italy it means helping businesses and artisans, because those people who will be the recipients of the income will spend money, she will be trained for new jobs and we will be able to reintegrate her by eliminating a part of poverty in Italy. That is the factor that is bringing us to a social condition where diversity is increasing”. Read More

ROMA (WSI) – More than a draft agreement, for some it is seen as a gauntlet to the European Union capable of sending the financial markets into a tailspin. Let's talk about the contract that Lega e Five Star Movement have developed and which they will soon bring to the attention of the Head of State, thus giving the green light to the new government.
Compared to the version leaked byHuffington Post in the new contract, thorny references disappear, such as the creation of an exit mechanism from the euro and the request to Mario Draghi of the ECB to cancel i 250 billions of debt for Italy.
However, some key points remain that could damage relations with Brussels. Not to mention that the coverage to be found for all these measures will be considerable and the budget constraints do not allow much room for manoeuvre.
Some points of the programmatic design still require some reflection, like them flat tax rates, the proposal to establish a regional Cie, the reform of the prescription, a law on mosques, up to the commitment to suspend executive works and re-discuss the Tav project in its entirety. Read More
