At the
end, Italians reached their goal successfully. They carried out their
civic duty, showing that the their "stupidity
factor" really tended to zero. It
is useless hiding the matter, but in any direction the vote was
oriented, it was, anyway, a democratic expression of a right
recognised and protected by the Constitution. It will be almost
impossible to prove the opposite because, beyond the peculiar
interests that each citizen sought to defend, persons expressed their
votes at the end of an electoral competition during which they had
the opportunity to hear amazing promises about a better future,
without taxes, less bureaucracy, more welfare. In other words, the
perfect equation to have a permission of living in El Dorado! The
result of the ballot boxes, however, shows a country hesitant and
divided into three groups, with a marginal role, but not decisive,
reserved for the centre party. Italy wanted "proudly"
show to the world that, in words, was strongly determined to change,
but, in reality, it does not want to do it. Those who lived off of
private income from birth until now are not willing to give up to do
again in the future. Those who lived with hope from birth until now
they will have to go on doing the same tomorrow. Those who could not
count on private income or hope, they will have sadly to accept that
they have no other way than going to live in another country, where
rights and
duties are
strictly recognised and respected. In other words, in every civilised
countries except Italy, where everyone has the same opportunities to
have their capabilities
recognised, allowing them to provide a contribute to both economic
and social growth of the community. Those who helped to decide the
fate of the country are aware that they are no longer willing to
sacrifice for others, having to defend both their power and their
influence or to protect selfish interests obtained in the past with
all resources, except meritocracy, that is the only one useful to
get something. Therefore, the role of the sovereign people has
exhausted. Now it is the turn of the elects who, with indifference
and ingratitude towards those who chosen them, rambling on political
jargon not deciding anything and let the country go adrift. The
foundations of instability have been built, the scaffolding will be
ready soon and the effects will not be long to be heard. The light at
the end of the tunnel, few months ago was fast approaching, now has
become much more clear. But it was not the way out of a dark destiny,
but the better path to impact against the change which run faster in
the opposite direction. During the spring, one will not reach any
target, in the summer one will not decide anything because it will be
time for holidays, the autumn will knock soon on the door and when
one will decide to open it, one will realise that the winter will be
already arrived and under the Christmas tree will lack an essential
item in the wage slip. This is the fate that Italians chose, now it
is the turn of politicians to demonstrate that their "index
of stupidity" does not tend to
infinity.
