At this hour, the results of the Italian general elections
are not yet clear. But what is obvious is that a large segment of the country’s
population leaves in a strange planet. Those who voted for two men that are far
from being serious – Berlusconi and Grillo – have not yet realised that Italy
needs a deep transformation and modernisation. Populism and cronyism of the
Silvio’s fashion are just the continuation of the road towards bankruptcy, more
corruption and chaos. Grillo’s anti-establishment platform will, in the end,
lead to almost the same results: bankruptcy, chaos, street politics and
political instability.
Italy is an example of what can happen to a major economy
when the rule of law is replaced by the rule of political favouritism and the
rule of the mafia groups. Let the situation go on for decades without being
tackled and see what you get: clowns and Mafiosi being voted into office.
