Too Large Tongue In Dogs

Praise ignorance!

Ieri pomeriggio mentre parlavo al telefono con Andrea Demontis, m’informava sui contenuti del pezzo che stava scrivendo. La Camera non aveva ancora votato il ddl Gelmini, ma lui aveva già preparato l’articolo in cui ne raccontava l’approvazione e il voto a favore dei finiani. Io allora gli dissi “mi sa che devi riscrivere il pezzo perché vedrai che la Riforma non passerà. Ora che sta cadendo il governo, ma dai, non sono così stupidi”. E sbagliavo.

Con 307 voti favorevoli (anche quelli futuristi) e 252 contrari. E questo mentre il New York Times metteva in prima pagina la notizia degli scontri italiani tra studenti e poliziotti. L’immagine che accompagna l’articolo è stata scattata fuori dal Rettorato di Bologna, e immortala uno studente che, con un salto alla Bruce Lee, tenta di sferrare un calcio in pieno volto al poliziotto protetto da casco, scudo protettivo e manganello in hand. Below, the caption: "Students in many Italian cities including Bologna covered by the photo, protested yesterday against the increase in fees and cuts in training."

occupied Rome, Milan is busy, busy Naples, Palermo, Catania, such as Turin, where he continued occupation of the New Palace. The university is on its knees. Literally in the lurch. And, our parliamentarians, our policy, which is when the government flounders B and is ready to end credits? Approve the biggest bullshit law that you could imagine.

An example: is not a common fact that academics, not all have the title of Professor. There are many researchers. Well, doctors are approximately 40% of the teachers. And, with this reform, in Article 12 we read that "universities can conclude (the researchers) of fixed-term employment contracts. Three-year contract renewable for only another three. " And then? At home. And, with the cuts, you can not hire new researchers. Then the faculty will be halved, in a university system where, even today, every teacher comes to having 500 students. It has happened to the undersigned, is not a rant or Travaglio Grillo. With the clear discomfort that are followed in both training that in the scene examination. No one who can raise their hand and say "I did not understand," because otherwise there is a chicken coop Ballarò worse. Results of examinations which are published on the site after two months from the date of appeal. And so on.

But how can such a reform, than in any other country in the world this is called a suicide by the ruling class, was able to launch? One solution would be to look at the faces of our parliament and our politicians. If we pause to gaze for a few minutes, perhaps we would understand the gap that exists between students and them. These people are frustrated that, as Grillo says, has not never seen two boobs. And, once the owner gives him "substantial amount", they become his slaves. And the politicians, parliamentarians, are no longer the country, lose their bond to the citizens. You create a parallel world. A top layer.

And, this parliamentary despotism, has ancient origins. The first elections for parliament were held in Italy in January 1861 and, therefore, immediately after the unification of the country, wanted to have a democratic nature. It was the people who ruled himself, in a nutshell. But (there was still Giolitti and his universal suffrage) were able to vote only 418,696 citizens. The 1, 9% of the population Italian. After the color change of the first parliament, a keen observer now completely forgotten, that Petruccelli della Gattina, warned all the storyteller and peddlers of the word democracy. He recalled that "the first Italian Parliament included two princes, dukes 3, 29 accounts, 23 Marquis, 26 barons, 50 commanders, and large crosses, 117 riders, including three of the Legion of Honor, 135 lawyers, 25 doctors, 10 priests, 21 engineers, four admirals, 23 generals, a prelate, 13 magistrates, 52 teachers or former teachers, industrial 8, 13 colonels, 19 ex-ministers, five state councilors, 4 letters, 2 Pro-Dictator, 2 dictators, 7 millionaires, 5 bankers, 25 nobles without specific license, no other Some drawings of the teacher profession and most Greens. " He ended his speech with these words that would be good, relate them to this day: "you certainly never say that ours is a democratic parliament of the people! There is everything. Except the people. "

And, at this time, instead of the Reformation in the parliament are anxious to commemorate Mario Monicelli, who was one of the greatest enemies of this ruling class. Which from the first moment has criticized these reforms. And, if instead of dealing with human Monicelli, but what I thought and said, perhaps, would do a bit 'less disgust. But they are MPs. E a loro insaputa.
