Maneuvering you maneuver, eventually the way is found. An aggressive Meloni, so the oppositions describe her, for some aggressive even with allies. As if to say: no more games and electoral games, that’s it, and that’s the end of it. Well, in terms of governance not bad, if you think of the jackets pulled by each party until the last available mile, that is, the New Year’s Eve dinner. Of course, examinations by the European Commission and parliament have to come, but in the meantime we register a respectable decision-making gap.
On the merits, without delving into all points in an editorial, in terms of vision here again more applause than grumbling, then, as always, inevitable. No new taxes on the middle class, spending review in the ministries, confirmation of the cut in the tax wedge and simplification of IRPEF rates, but there is more: 3.5 billion from the banks going straight to health care, a matter on which the oppositions had sharpened their weapons. No one is even legally talking about extra profits, the fact is that the huge gains made from the long rate hike, through agreed tax mechanisms end up with the citizens. And then the focus on families and the birth rate, which some people ideologize wrongly as if those who do not have children should be penalized.
No, of course, but the issue is sensitive in all Western democracies, and those who have had some results are those who have put not only conventions but money on the issue. In short, 30 billion — it was supposed to be 20 — on the ‘whole spent well and recovered without new debts that Europe would have rejected us. For some there is no mention of the issue of growth, but let us remind everyone that a budget law is not the Bible of humanity’s needs.
