Why Don't Women Wear Girdles Anymore

Un cancro chiamato "assistenzialismo statale"

Negli ultimi tempi, in Italia, il dibattito politico ha riservato grande rilievo alla sorte della compagnia aerea nazionale, da anni in passivo e costantemente sull'orlo del fallimento. Dopo voci su improbabili trattative con Air France o fantasiose cordate d'imprenditori italiani, alla fine il governo Prodi, su richiesta di Berlusconi, stanzia 300 milioni per un prestito (o meglio regalo...) ponte per Alitalia . Soldi dei taxpayers (ie us!) we already know that will never come back, and maybe that will help to save Alitalia from bankruptcy.
The fact is that here it would not constitute state aid but a real suicide, a waste of public money, considering that at this time to give money to Alitalia, in the absence of a serious industrial plan of reorganization the company would burn the money. So failure of the entire political class and the unions, and probably also of the entrepreneurial class. But I am not an economist and I will not go over financial matters. But what I wish to emphasize is that the money probably will be subtracted scientific research, and this is the point.
a modern, civilized and democratic, without research is not going anywhere. I am not referring to basic research (which could be for example that in the medical and health fields) , having as its primary objective the advancement of knowledge in a specific discipline, which is still fundamental, I refer instead to the applied research, carried out in order to find practical solutions and specifications, and whose primary focus is the exploitation of knowledge for practical purposes, usually descriptive and based on previous basic research and performed in an industrial environment or university.
Often, during various election campaigns, candidates often talk about taxes, using expressions like "we will reduce deque", "you have raised the" (a reference to the last election ... is purely intended), leaving the pool is short, that if you take money from a party so you do return the other and vice versa. In short, the welfare of the citizen and the state economy do not change much, and with high fees that reduced fees. Consequently, the only way to forfeit more money into the coffers of the state and run as fast as the economy is the increase in productivity, which does not penalize the labor market, on the contrary, facilitates increasing profits delle aziende.
Tutto questo è possibile attraverso il cervello di chi ce l'ha e ha studiato per metterlo a disposizione della collettività, che stando così le cose non sarà mai quella italiana bensì di qualunque altro paese sia disposto ad investire in innovazione e ricerca.
