    Governence wise, italy is screwed.
    Silvio Berlusconi : The Guy is the second richet man in the country. He owns a good chunk of the media. He has been on trial numerous times for alleged corruption, bribery, mafia links, etc but has never ben convicted of anything while those around him have been charged. The guy even tried to bring in a law stating that the head of government cant be arrested for wrongdoing. (and yes, it was passed)

    Berlusconi is a genius.

    The youtube clip of Berlusconi going up behind some woman and making rude gestures is hilarious!

    Sour grapes on the outgoing government's part. You lost. Get over it.

    Not the best way to begin the long road back into government by upsetting masses of people.

    There has been outrage in Italy after the outgoing government published every Italian's declared earnings and tax contributions on the internet.
    be interesting to see if more people report their neighbours now

    IIRC in scandanavia they already publish how much tax you pay

    one wonders how that would go down here, considering how much unpaid tax that has been uncovered by the tribunals, would it be 7% too ?

    I fully endorse tax evasion in all its forms.
