Other than “few pay for everyone”: in Italy it State feewastes, accuses and mind. Alberto Brambilla’s article on Corriere della Sera Economia It is not an analysis: it is an accusation against citizens, an ideological justification for fiscal voracity and paralysis of an indefensible state that is unable to deserve a single euro of what it claims.
In a country where the Total tax and contribution rates exceeds 59%, accuse citizens of “Don’t pay enough“It is not only false, but dangerously manipulative. The tax burden exceeded 43% of the GDPthe tax revenue continues to grow every year, and all this only serves to maintain a bulimic public apparatus, inefficient and out of control and all the clientel parastical at the service of political parties.
Brambilla paints an Italy where A small tax elite of benefactors It sacrifices himself to maintain health, school and assistance for everyone (“60% do not pay taxes, 24% pay those just enough to pay for the basic services” and “the tax burden is on the shoulders of 17% of the population who declares income from 35 thousand euros gross per year“). But forget – or even worse omette – that millions of Italians with low incomes pay every day VAT, record excise duties, local taxes and mandatory social security contributions.
Forget that the real ballast is not those who struggle to emerge, but a state that rewards the political parasitism And punishes merit, the company, productivity.
Our social security system It is a contributory cage: each worker pays over a third of his gross income in contributions without acquiring a single certain right. The distribution system is not a “social model”: it is a Ponzi di Stato scheme, where those who pay today do it without knowing if, when and how much it will receive tomorrow. And each government changes the rules in the running.
In the meantime, public spending has exceeded 54% of GDP: The state burns more than half of the national wealthbut returns hospitals without doctors, schools that fall into pieces, impractical roads and bureaucracy that suffocates everything that moves. And while the entrepreneur “Failed State expands, those who produce wealth is treated as an alleged tax evader to be supervised, fining, persecuting.
The real scandal is not who escapes to survivebut those who continue to demand more taxes to cover their bankruptcies and maintain an out of control public machine.
Let’s stop criminalizing citizens. The statism has failed. It is the state that must be put to the bar and the whole single party of the “+state!” and his clerics.
Need:
• True Flat Tax and capitalized contributionsto restore economic freedom and individual responsibility to those who produce and to those who work;
• Freedom of choice for Healthcare And instruction through voucher, to introduce competition and that the state takes care of and good only for the indigent, inactive and incapacitated at work;
• net cut of the unproductive public expenditureto free businesses and families with a suffocating weight of the state.
There is no need for new fiscal moralism. A liberal revolution is needed. You need the “chainsaw”! Only in this way can we get out of stagnation and reconstruct an Italy that is not governed by fiscal fear and the illusion of state paternalism, but based on freedom, merit and responsibility.
