Italy is on the exact same road of Venezuela.

The spirit the current government has is the same of the Chavez/Maduro combo.

After all a few years ago, withVenezuela were already in full crisis, a delegation of the M5S, the party that is at the government now, went to visit Venezuela. They declared, and I'm not joking nor paraphrasing "there are some problems in Venezuela but the government made many good things, like the music curriculum in the schools".

Anyway the last proposal is so outrageous I had to open up a thread. Yeah, they did propose to regulate the dance instructors market, so that you need to pass an exam and get a license and into a "dance instructors board" in order to teach zumba class and shit like that (not kidding). But they now did something even worse.

They want to "centralize ecommerce". They think it's unfair that big business have an advantage and therefore all products sold online will need to have the same price. They will need to be registered on the blockchain someway and everything will need to be known about them.

I mean, I know it doesn't make sense both economically and technologically, but that's what they want to do.

Same price faggots.

Same price.

I fucking hate my life. Where the fuck do I move?

in Italy right-wings are still socialists.

There are not free market parties. There used to be Berlusconi's party, but he cucked out in the 90s, after he got elected the fist time and they became yet another proto-socialist party.

At the moment there are two parties at the government.

M5S, which is a pro-Maduro, populist party. They don't go around saying that they're socialists, but they are. They're program is all about equality, nationalizations, redistributions, etc

Then there is the Lega, which is right-wing since it doesn't want black people. It also wanted the flat tax, but it doesn't come from a place of love for the free market. Better than nothing, but still, a flat tax is completely useless if the next day you propose to have all the ecommerce centralized with all the products with the same price.

Sad reality is that Italians are collectivists and since the few free market oriented influencers we had are dying, we're fucked hard.

I truly don't get what's the point, how it it helping small players.

Thanks for the post tho, now the pic makes sense.

I swear I'm not making a parody or a strawman.

They think that amazon and other big players get to have better prices because of some unfair practices. They can't imagine that there are many ways to organize a business and cut costs. To them, an ecommerce is a thing and it's always the same thing. At most you have different graphics.

I'm worried.

With most leftist policies, when they become reality, I can see that some crony is gonna get a lot of money from them, and therefore they always leave space for some semblance of freedom to remain, in order to not make everything collapse in just 5 days.

It's now that I cannot find who is gonna get those sweet State money that I'm really worrying.

The people in the M5S truly believe this shit. It's a young party born on the idea that corruption is the worst thing ever. And it didn't even have time to get "corrupted". The people who are in it are the original people, those who really believed the ideology. And what's the ideology?

They're just there for the people.

They think they're just applying everything that is "good for everybody", basically what you get in school and progressive media(a leftist education with zero insights about economics). If you read the program is all about free "essential" services and equality and muh jobs. If they see a social thing done by a "superior" country like Sweden, like free bikes or some shit, they're gonna argue in favor of it.

They don't define themselves as leftists because of their origin and ignorance. To them, they're not following an ideology but doing what's obviously the right thing. Isn't this scary?

They're not some fake or not-truly-convinced leftists who are there to work for the cronies. They really believe this stuff and they'll do everything to apply it.

Where indeed. Where does anyone go? We aren't numerous or powerful enough to influence politics, and there's no free land to go sit on and make a new nation (and even that would require a lot of wealth). It seems we are destined to languish eternal.
