De Luca: the Citizenship Income is a big scam that helps the sons of bitches….
At a time when the Citizenship Income is being profoundly reformed and partly cancelled, with comprehensive controversies, I want to present to you what the governor of Campania, Vincenzo De Luca, said about the RdC, when it was introduced by the Conte 1 government. Quite clear words
As always, De Luca was strong, too much, with his words, but one should ask his party mates in the PD what they think of his words.
Italy needs a form of basic social parachute, as all Western countries have. What has been missing with the Citizenship Income is the start of work or, at least, a form of minimum commitment of the recipients in favor of the community, often due to the incapacity of local authorities to take advantage of this workforce.
However, let us remember that, to beat unemployment, it takes two things:
- an improvement in the job offer, with active employment policies, which need to be improved;
- an improvement in demand, to be achieved with economic stimuli to the public and private sector, which are currently scarce or bad (see PNRR) or with supply side policies, which really do not exist.
Everything else is fluff, or demagoguery
