With populists in the driving seat, Italy is heading for trouble
Both chambers of parliament are hung, with no easy or quick way for anyone to achieve a majority. More alarming is that half of the voters—fed up with high unemployment, stagnant wages, uncontrolled immigration and a self-serving political class—voted for the two main populist parties, the Five Star Movement (M5S) and the Northern League. Both are hostile to the EU and especially the euro, and both campaigned on lavish tax and spending promises that Italy cannot afford.



Beppe Grillo, a part-time comedian who began his political career with the cry of vaffanculo! (fuck off!) to the establishment is the light behind the 5 star movement!

Italy shows that people vote as if it does not matter. The Capitalist system takes care of everybody so we can vote in any crazy person that when in power can’t do nothing crazy 

Beppe Grillo, a part-time comedian who began his political career with the cry of vaffanculo! (fuck off!) to the establishment is the light behind the 5 star movement. Poor Italy!

i think people are a bit snozzy almost everything is getting cheaper, we can fly low cost, we can use UBER, food is cheaper in the supermarket the only problem in the world is that no ones needs us to work. Besides programmers & techies no one is really needed anymore perhaps football players and entertaining people. all the rest are interchangeable.

this is why people vote in crazy people as if it did not matter. The big job of Governments is to keep people entertained and busy.
