110% bonus weakened? It is not a question of fraud, but of a restrictive and austere policy. The bad side of Draghi

In Italy, when you want to cancel a socially useful idea, fraud is involved. A very widespread way in our governments also because it allows unpopular decisions to be unloaded onto the people themselves. In the end the statement is: " You are a people of dishonest people, you do not deserve anything ". Without considering that the government of a possibly dishonest people can only be dishonest too.

This is the technique used by Prime Minister Draghi to punish those who thought of using the 110% bonus, or other bonuses, by preventing a basic function, that is, the sub-transfer of the tax credits generated. So whoever has the tax credit, either has the capacity himself, or cannot sell them further, for example, to a bank. This severely limits its use, already made complex by the increase in the prices of raw materials.

There have really been so many abuses and scams, as the government understands? Let's see what the MEF himself says about it.

You can read this in the report of the MEF at the Hearing of the Director of Revenue in the Chamber.

Some remarks:

  • first of all these are presumed data from the Revenue Agency (ADE, evocative name ..). It is not certain that they are real frauds, given the percentage of losses in front of the tax commissions on the part of the office;
  • there is talk of scams on the ECOBONUS, but the SUPERBONUS, the famous 110% has an extremely low number of frauds, 3%. The SISMABONUS a similar percentage. So why do you take the least interesting bonus to hit the one that is more useful and complete?
  • so let's ask ourselves a question: what controls have the ADE and the municipalities put in place in advance? Because afterwards it is easy to contest the data without having sent even a humble surveyor to check. Maybe agreements could be made with professional associations to carry out the checks. Too difficult, better to call everyone a thief;
  • what is the extent of the alleged irregularities? Are they "Scams" or, simply, compilation errors, facilitated by the fact that the standard is incredibly complex? If someone put four meters more of solar panels, maybe it was in good faith. In this case the problem is that the law is very poorly written.

Instead it gives a clean break also giving a significant slice of the Italians of the thief. We instead think that this decision is heterodirect, after perhaps a few talks with the owner of Berlin.

Germany has much higher core inflation than ours, a sign of an economy that is perhaps a little too cheerful. The low rates have allowed the Germans, who unlike the Italians for the most part do not own a house, to try to buy it and renovate it, also by focusing on ecological contributions paid by their KfW body. So the idea of ​​the "Semaphore" government in which there are the liberals, who hate any expansive policy, and the Greens, in the mood for punishments for non-"Green" citizens, was to cut construction contributions to slow down the 'inflation.

In Italy, where there are few and confused ideas, it was decided to slavishly follow the German example, making it almost impossible to use the Ecobonus. Simple and banal. The aid is seen as "Distortive", as the head of the MISE says, without too much imagination, all without considering the current situation of the Italian economy, where inflation is not the German one, while core inflation, the real one, which derives from economic activity, is frozen. But ubi maior, minor cessat, and our government is that of a protectorate. The MISE talks about alternative measures to revive construction, but without question there is little to revive. The positive side is that, at least, we have seen the bad side of Draghi, even in economics, and to show it they do not hesitate to show substantially false data. We remove the eco-bonus and the face bonus, but we leave 110%. Instead he makes a bundle of all the grass.
