Finmeccanica USA: the link between economic progress and war

At this time the market and the government praised the success of and approve Finmeccanica, which has managed to win the U.S. competition in the provision U.S. Army and Air Force aircraft first for the next year. A success, after a similar provision in 2005, due to the choice of betting on a market with " the defense budget highest in the world" as stated by the CEO of Finmeccanica. Within hours, news agencies register the protest of General military base in Vicenza, following the latest allegations of the motion No dal Molin .
The positive reactions of the market and the government and the negative command of the U.S. and President Prodi (who will travel tomorrow to the International Conference in Padua to prevent the protest movement) against the opposition to a war economy recall precisely supposed benefit of the Dal Molin "provide 20,000 jobs." The vicious circle of war costs and economic recovery and employment (think increase in GDP in the period of war ) is also confirmed in Italy, which does not escape the economic model of growth of GDP in the data that Italy, with the increasing costs of war (think of the financial 2006), and an increase in the export of war that brings our country in the world seventh place in the export of weapons, moving to ' eighth place overall military spending. This was announced by the 2007 SIPRI report on peace and armaments. Given this situation it is necessary yes a international Arms Trade Treaty , but also break the link between economic recovery, employment and arms, so that the costs of war should no longer be an excuse for increased prosperity of states which form a Outnumbered world, to the detriment of the countries affected by war. Because if an economic system to survive or grow epr requires perhaps necessary to destroy the model of growth of GDP as an advocate for the welfare of states and peoples is to be rethought in its foundations.

Aggressive Dog Jumping On Fence

smart with the district (RED)

There was a time when attacks on the judiciary were the gazette of Silvio Berlusconi, along with the specter of communism. Other times, now throughout the Union turns against judges, guilty of having widespread eavesdropping on climbing the political plots behind the Unipol Group and RCS - Corriere della Sera. Justice Minister Mastella does not exclude " sending inspectors" to protect "constitutional prerogatives of parliament " waiting to be launched in the new law on wiretapping. And once the agreement on the condemnation of interecettazioni is bipartisan: the center, far from further exploit the issue against the DS (the first interceptions were published by The Journal ) distanced from the publication of interceptions, also for the protection of members of parliament, since they are also under investigation parliamentary center.
emerges as a story made of subterfuge and conspiracy to steal banking groups and influential newspaper Il Corriere della Sera as for electoral purposes, they assume the foreground burattinieri D'Alema and Fassino, operators to pieces as Fiorani , Ricucci, Consort, promptly investigated and in some cases, finished well behind bars.
quote brings us back to '92, the notices of security, the corruption of the political system. And even if it is stressed, there are against criminal for politicians intercepted, this story is that, in the words of Lanfranco Turci, a "contribution to the wave of anti-" which clearly shows one thing: "the inability of the bipolar to manage this country.

1981 Arctic Cat Spark

EMERGENCY PARLIAMENTARY

Everything can be said of the Italian political class, but we do know. The savoir faire, the power to extricate himself when the lot becomes adverse. Bush's visit to Rome, blocked traffic. Even for a senator. But you know, if you are not granted the privilege, I'll take another. So Gustavo Selva, an old fox who said it told the big hill to legitimize the sending of Italian troops in Nasiriyah, in fact, sent only to the interests of ENI, pretends to be evil. Here comes the ambulance and run run to the study (private) cardiologist with the ambulance (public). And you see the connections: Nogaro being perhaps the cardiologist is not (by illness amnesia?) But there are television studios of La 7. Because if there is a record turnout to the Chambers but must appear in other classrooms, better TV, so it combines business with pleasure: the political commitment and sponsorship of their own. But there's more. The Gustav good, proud of the stratagem, he thinks that tell on live TV and there ... paratrac! The end of the world. "Shameful, irresponsible, unworthy, disgraceful, indefensible" ... and so on and so forth. And down bipartisan threats of criminal sanctions, resignation, early retirement. In short, the weekly gossip of politics, just for the partisan chatter from left to counter the mysterious depths of D'Alema in South America.
Moral of the story? The story of yet another abuse of power, arrogant ostentation of privilege behind plus those who could really, in case of emergency need quell'ambulanza, in a healthcare setting and slowly increase in costs, like the Italian one. But what more is silenced and readiness to cast the first stone, who enjoys the same privileges and abuses but the first stones at the latter's public admission. In a country where a politician has been the only politically correct the goodism that accompanies any abuse of the political class.

lot of smoke ... no fire: the G8 future of the environment and Degrowth

The summit of leaders of eight most industrialized countries, the G8, held in Germany last week, had as its first point OA. Dg a shared commitment comparisons of the climate crisis: the goal is to halve carbon emissions by 2050 to decrease of 2 degrees Celsius, the temperature of the earth. The summit, called in front of Benedict from 16 ° G. Bush " successful," he brought, similarly to what happened to the Kyoto Protocol, the non-availability stratunitense imposing a limit on greenhouse gas emissions. A successful summit rightly for the American president, who dismissed the climate issue, was able to focus on the issue missile defense with Russia.
However, despite the absence of agreement, a question arises on what the G8 intends to take. It speaks both to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, diversification of energy sources, solar, wind, nuclear, and the introduction agrofuels. The progressive reduction of fossil fuels and fortune, because of the economic model in force, made up of GDP growth and consumption, has already led, as well as environmental disasters, a state of more or less violent world conflict (eg, to cite two known cases iraqueno oil-exploitation and the threat to Putin on cutting gas). The solution is simply that you would like to find substitute sources of energy, some sources, but housed in the same economic system of endless consumption.
From this viewpoint, the G8 lose sight of the real cause and then address the real problems not only environmental, but also the stress state of the planet, or a system Growth which assigns to a minority percentage of the vast resources and penalizes the majority of the population, those who have the resources (eg Africa).
Then maybe after 300 years of development, an idea of \u200b\u200bproductive activity-based economic growth, which has united, even in their differences, liberalism and socialism, it's time to take stock and a forecast for the future. Thinking of contrast, the system of values \u200b\u200bbased on GDP growth for an alternative system, the decrease .

What To Do When A Dog Swallows Listerine

PIU 'ICE CREAM FOR ALL (Senators)! FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE

Italy is the only country in which, as stated in "Otto e mezzo" some long ago, it was not possible to reach real agreements bipartisan not boundless nell'inciucio or transfer budget (if you smell defeat) of the pole. It is not true. The representatives of the people of the cartel know how to find all right: a chord that hits your stomach. And so, not at all oblivious to the television proclaims "there is no money, you need to cut taxes, close ...", the senators claim an inalienable right, the premium ice cream. And so or. Dg 7 went to the Senate on Thursday a bipartisan proposal , signed among others by Senator Buttiglione (UDC) and Soliani (Olive), male and female, to preserve the shares rose, for a " required to improve the quality of the Senate " is devoid of the refreshment stands ice cream. The document continues by invoking the adaptation of the life of the Senate "to normal stresses of everyday life," which, according to the inhabitants of the Senate, an ice cream if they do not miss ever. Even less if you aggratis .
Republic, which published the news , comments talking about the motion wishes related to the 'essence body and primordial power. " The complaint was not enough to save or "The cost of democracy", or "La Casta" Stella and Rizzo, nor the proposed bill on spending cuts of the Palace To resize the Bengodi.
Then cut size. What? "Provinces", "grants to party newspapers, " sauna and exercise bikes, "just because" rarely used ", and well parliamentary annuities ... but only for the younger generation the future. And the € 3000 a year to "study trips . Not to mention the record of absenteeism of MPs who do other work, and then receive other salaries, published lavoce.info .
course, it is clear that "rights acquired not touching" penalty " a sflilza of litigation," says Olive Albonetti. I mean cutting a few heads will save a little. Just to calm the waters a bit before the next televised debate. But it is not possible to make a law that calls into question the privileges acquired by those who enjoy the privileges, without shame, for decades. Law that will turn into a sop, behind those at the palace, perhaps taking a single salary for jobs of all kinds.
Italian politics is sinking into an abyss that will not be the electoral law, or motions dilapidated to save. The degeneration of Parliament, transformed, with its privileges and costs, in a farcical caricature of Italy, which struggles to survive, can only be curbed citizens, with the only weapon that allows democracy, voting. It 's why an increase in absenteeism in the upcoming vote will only be good for those who live and kicking at the back of others, only because of popular support.
