They have a high level of idol and placed him in a shrine, but he, the market never fails to make a mockery of its flatterers.
The last opportunity was offered by Telecom, a company that until 1997 was in the hands of the public and enjoyed excellent health. Then, in response to the liberal diktat, which had colonized all heads including that of D'Alema, who was Prime Minister in 1997, was offered in sacrifice to the great god Market. Thus, a commons built with taxes generations of Italians, deputy to perform a service of primary importance was given to those who are only looking for profits, often through the master plan of production and sales, but through the tips and tricks of speculation. And here's the scandal Telelecom added to the scandal Cirio and Parmalat scandal, all finished in the meat grinder of business debts. But as everyone knows, Telecom was also found in the middle of two other scandals. On the one hand the wiretapping. Across the external accounts, according to the indictment, were used to control speculation in a very special system. If brought gains were recorded in the personal accounts of directors. If losses brought venivano registrate sul conto di Telecom.Se vivessimo in un paese civile ce ne sarebbe abbastanza per dire che la prova è andata male. Che il bene è requisito e torna nelle mani del pubblico. Invece il 28 settembre Prodi si è presentato alla Camera per confermare la sua fedeltà al dio mercato, affermando che “non avremo uno stato proprietario”. Sappiamo che il liberismo ha attecchito anche grazie allo sfacelo dei regimi socialisti. Un evento che ha fatto vergognare come ladri i dirigenti della sinistra e li ha indotti, per reazione, a diventare i più strenui sostenitori del mercato. Ma non possiamo continuare all’infinito a strisciare per terra per la vergogna degli errori dei padri ed è arrivato il momento di riaprire un serious debate on the role of the market and the public. The position of the liberals is known: the public care should be taken as little as possible and when he occupies must secure the cooperation of private companies. Not even when military activity is partly delegated to mercenaries. But we must have the courage to say that the market may be fine for what it does not affect the dignity of persons: necklaces, swimwear, fragrances, automobiles. In a word may be fine for the wishes, but not for the rights. This is the distinction between market and public economics. The rights are not optional linked to wealth, age or sex. Health, education, housing, transport, but also shares vital water, food, energy, clothing, belong to all, rich and poor, young and old, men and women, whites and blacks. The rights are our second skin. Belong to us as our first and last name. We belong to the very fact of existing. We are born with the right to live, feeding, clothing, cure us, teach us, move, communicate. Just because it does not depend on our wealth, not part of the market. The market is a great machine that will satisfy even the most bizarre cravings, but on one condition: you'll pocket the money to pay. Who has money to spend is the great welcome. Who has not declined is great. For this we must cry out loudly that the rights belong the community must take responsibility through a pact of collective solidarity.
The public, the word itself says it must deal with what is all well and must deal with the rights of the commons: water, air, forests, rivers, seas. We must defend strict laws so that no one disfigured. We must take care with appropriate services so that they are safeguarded. We must manage with fairness and justice so that everyone can enjoy. Then scrolliamoci off the inferiority complex and go back to reaffirm the primacy of public economy as the economy of all. Petrella pointed out to us that the republic comes from res publica, which means the public good. Then we do not have much to invent. We just take the words seriously
