The band on the Titanic plays on while the iceberg gets closer. Tremorti, on trombone, reassures us: “We either go forward or we sink” (perhaps both …) and “As on the Titanic, those in first class do not get saved” It’s the umpteenth “tremortian” whopper. First class people are already saved. They have accumulated capital. They have taken their money abroad. First class people have got free tickets for the crossing, from the Government, with the Fiscal Shield with just 5% taxation on capital that has been kept hidden from the tax authorities. Together with the first class travellers, ones who will be saved are their cooks, valets, the serving staff of the newspapers, and the ship-owners of the banks and of the Confindustria. The citation of the Titanic is a good reassurance only for the poor people. Employees, precarious workers, unemployed people are already immersed in shit up to their necks. In the sinking of the Titanic, in first class 61.81% of the passengers were saved: 204 survivors out of 330. In second class 42.5%, 119 out of 280. In third class 26.85%, 105 out of 391. A first class ticket gave three times the guarantee of survival in relation to a third class ticket.
Tremorti after thirty years of political associating and economic tittle-tattle has woken up. He whispered, as though he were lying down on a bed waiting for the legal transfer: ”introduce into the Constitution a golden rule that ties us to the achievement of balancing the budget.” He’s saying that now, when everything is bursting its banks, falling over, overflowing and the debt is a mountain of ice close to 2,000 billion arriving in our faces.
”Tremortacci tua”, where have you and your peers been all this time? The MoVimento 5 Stelle {5 Star MoVement}, the populist one, the pioneer of anti-politics, the qualunquists, for years has inserted in its Programme a line that says: “Approval of each law subject to effective financial funding”. You cannot get the citizen into debt with his permission to do electoral financing, to buy fighter-bombers from the United States, to keep our troops in Afghanistan, for 22 billion euro’s worth of stupid things like the TAV, for a billion of public funding to the parties disguised as reimbursements. You cannot throw hundreds of millions of tax payers down the bog with bullshit like the one wanted by Maroni to decouple the referendum from the local elections or to keep the Provinces alive. Nor can you do the “Messina Bridge”, the “Gronda” and whatever you want for tens of billions of euro drawing on the public debt. The money belongs to us, the citizens. You have made it go up in smoke. You have gifted it to the State concessionaires, like Benetton for the motorways, like Marcegaglia and the oil barons with the Cip6, like our newspapers. The people of first class got rich thanks to the State. They should be the last to climb in to the lifeboats.
