Jasmine in the country of liars
Most probably do not remember or know the wonderful news of Gianni Rodari, entitled "Gelsomino in the country liars. "
There is told of a ruler, much swindler, who reigned at the head of a State in which he was obliged to lie, who told the truth where it ended up in a mental hospital, where cats were forced to bark and dogs meow and above all should praise the king.
Any reference to the Italian situation is strongly desired.
It has been confirmed by the recent release of our beloved Prime Minister Berlusconi when, just back on the political scene, announced with great fanfare the forthcoming reform that would radically reduce taxes (for very little indeed ordinary citizens, so much for the rich) in a redistributive logic of the Sheriff of Nottingham than Robin Hood.
We immediately suspected it was the umpteenth shot of a man accustomed to pre-election recount increasingly large, it is believed to enjoy total impunity. But this time he has outdone himself coming to support just 24 hours after the impracticability of the project due to rising public debt. In
so much nonsense, where is the deception? Declaring
unworkable tax reform, Berlusconi and his majority, including the Northern League, the way even close to those measures necessary to rebalance the tax burden, especially in a situation of economic crisis such as the present.
No tax on large estates, no adjustment of the taxation of financial income to the European level, no corresponding tax reduction for employees and no income support for unemployed and precarious. In return for total impunity evaders as taught by the shameful story of the tax shield and its extensions.
Rodari the truth in the tales of the triumphs and even then the king repents fraudulent.
But this is a fairy tale. In reality things are more complex and if there is a move could also get worse.
