Impressions from a trip to the Bel Paese
by Emiliano Biaggio
Italy is really a curious country. Everything considerable as not making sense, there is normal. First of all, the term "evolution" is unknown. That means improvements are not allowed in Italy. Things can only to turn from bad to worse, when it would be supposed to be the contrary. Nowhere will be possible to find heaven on Heart, but generally speaking when there are dysfunctions or problems every country works for solutions. In Italy it doesn't make sense. Making a practical example, if today there's a railway line with a few technical problems, in a couple of years the amount of such problems will be grown up. Or problems will be founded in deleting a certain number of trains. Again, if there's a road with some dips on it, in a rain-time all the other ways will become a minefield. In such a situation, Italians simply don't care about. "What can I do?", "It happens", "It has always word in that way", are the typical comments you will listened to from the people. There even those who complain. "It goes always worse and worse", "It would be better to go abroad", say other. But despite the critics nobody does anything to try to change the situation. And improvisation is the main lifestyle. There not any long term strategies, the so called structural reforms are in reality measures conceived just to resolve contingencies, and promises remain on paper. Public procurement and public contest are manipulated since the beginning, credibility as a country is at the lowest rates ever. But Italians don't care. They use to say that "all politicians are bastards", borrowing for a while the very popular expression ACAB and turning into APAB. It's not a case Movimento 5 Stelle (M5S) got consensus until being one of the major political party in Italy. But to be honest, if you ask people (and members of M5S as well) what the programme is, they'll simply offer complains rather than proposals. Even Nazis had a programme: a foolish one, but the have it. In Italy M5S is waited to offer a vision of the country, and we understand that's a problem in a country where there any vision for the future. But as we told at the beginning, what it doesn't make sense everywhere else has a reason to be in Italy.
