SUD. Unit 150 years, no more excuses: no more state aid

Un mappa del Regno delle Due Sicilie .
Vorrei, da figlio di padre pugliese, che i meridionali italiani che risiedono al Sud, che ancora oggi, a 150 anni dall’Unità of Italy, blame the state of their incapacity for ages, meditating on a revealing fact. When a southern Italian goes to live in Northern Italy or abroad, without recommendations of the powerful. behaves decently all things considered, it fits well in the new company, often earning the esteem of colleagues and authorities, sometimes pursuing important goals. Instead, it remains fossilized in the South, his apathy becomes chronic, the vetoes, pessimism, envy, corruption and crime, the southern block of society, sometimes forever.
This is proof that the southerners are themselves the architects of their own success or sconfitta. Un secolo e mezzo è trascorso dall’Unità italiana, e ormai solo qualche novantenne affetto da Alzheimer è perdonabile se parla ancora di "colpe dei Piemontesi".
Sono stati proprio i grandi studiosi meridionali e meridionalisti – da Dorso a Salvemini, da Croce a De Viti De Marco, da Gramsci a Fortunato e a Compagna, quindi di ogni tendenza: per lo più liberali e democratici, ma anche marxisti – a scrivere sulle gravi colpe della cinica, parassitaria e ignorante borghesia meridionale, che finita la sua comoda vita all'ombra dei Borboni non ha mai avuto né idee né ideali, cioè dignità di classe dirigente che si fa carico anche dei doveri, e che nella Nuova Italia in exchange for a few privileged classes have turned their eyes away so as not to see, without lifting a finger to modernize the company's South .
And I will come to argue that there are shining exceptions (starting from the same Southern intellectuals, of course, and today only a few brave entrepreneurs and enlightened bourgeois) are a small minority that does not affect the social fabric. Because the dominant values \u200b\u200bin the South among the people are very different. A survey among young South a few years ago showed that almost all of them make it or would recommend. Unique in the world. This leads them to the Italian state? And 'because of Garibaldi, the Savoy, Bossi? No, because they were already doing so under the Bourbons, in the nineteenth century. Please read about the corruption, privileges, lack of freedom in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and the cruel stupidity of the Bourbons, the beautiful and adventurous autobiography of a remarkable aristocratic Sicilian, I recommend you read (Michele Palmieri Miccichè, Thoughts and historical memories and contemporary , and Selleriio).
It is no coincidence that the South, still, there are few newspaper kiosks and almost no libraries, but instead many jewelers, banks, bakeries, butcher shops, restaurants and shops for weapons.
So far, state intervention to reduce the deficit southern secular (deficit of culture, morality, legality, private enterprise) did not work, because I went to grease the parasitic elites or criminal society of the South Well - Panebianco argues in a editorial in Corriere della Sera ("Liberalism and paternalism, the streets of the South" ) - is not that the alternative route of "liberal."
"The way a liberal, rather than the writer - writes Panebianco - (and that, in the long run, I think, would be the trump card for the South) is the one that says only the southern, and no one else can solve their problems. The State, therefore, provides the South, as suggested by the time Bruno Leoni Institute, only the opportunity becoming a big no-tax area by interrupting the flow of the same transfer of resources. The state would remain the South only with the equipment of the force (counter-crime) and essential public services. At that point, you will probably unleash a fierce conflict between the modernizing influences of the South (we are) and that "patronage without resources, dominant until today, has mentioned recently the president of Confindustria in Sicily Ivan Lo Bello. Since we changed the conditions of the game, the modernizing influences have, for the first time, the ability to prevail. Only when, after some time, had set in motion a process of self-sustained development (with the capital improvement umano, con una maggiore efficienza delle amministrazioni pubbliche, con una raggiunta capacità di attirare capitali) le varie regioni del Sud passerebbero progressivamente, anche del punto di vista fiscale e istituzionale, nella fascia A, quella delle regioni sviluppate.
"Oppure, si può seguire la via paternalista, la quale assume che i meridionali non siano capaci di cambiare le condizioni del Sud. Ma se la si sceglie, bisogna seguirla fino in fondo, coerentemente. In questo caso, è il centro che deve decidere tutto e a tutto sovrintendere. Anche con soluzioni istituzionali drastiche: fine di ogni autonomia regionale (Sanità in testa) e locale, azzeramento delle classi dirigenti colpevoli di sprechi, eccetera. Il problema è interventions to prevent modernizers of the center are distorted and the central resources "captured" by local elites concerned to feed clientele. As happened to the old case of the South and will happen again if you like stir centralism and autonomy, paternalism and liberalism. Again, it should be worth the commitment that the southern regions in which they succeed in generating development, a gradual transition in band A, reaches the promised land of fiscal federalism (but without compensation and transfers). If the South will not trigger as soon as a virtuous cycle of self-sustained development day will come that unity of this country is at risk. The bakery, and improvised solutions do not help. "So Panebianco.
Eliminate regional autonomy, then, from the Sicilian, the most scandalous of all, and subtract the regions health care spending. Agree more. The regions at risk, without money and health related fraud (a patch in Sicily coast to the city three times in the North) should change all the methods of life and, consequently, the local political class. As is well known that the main reason why everywhere in Italy, but especially in the south, you approach the policy is the hope of gain and bribes. Aside from these. politics as a profession for ne'er-do-nothing and would no longer appetibile. Dovrebbero davvero lavorare.
