Italy was one of the biggest agricultural country, and even if nowadays this power is not as strong as before, there are still many rural areas such as Sardegna (the island on the west of Italy).
During these days a small village in Sardegna, called Decimoputzu, has become the heart of a big protest.
Twenty years ago a lot farmers asked the banks for money to start their activities, and the banks gave them the money and assured them economic advantages, in order to help the farmers in giving the money back to the banks.
This was great: with the proper time and this kind of fares the farmers were able to work without big problems.
Unfortunately this is not a fairy tale, and there's not a happy ending. In fact the European Union has recently disapproved the contracts the banks made with the farmers 20 years ago and now the banks want a sum of money too much superior than the one the farmers gave them so they can't pay.
What's the result? 7000, SEVEN THOUSAND (small) companies are going to fail if someone doesn't help them and a lot of them have already sold their lands to pay their debts!!!! 7000, and we have to consider the employees and their families!!!!!!!!
20th November (finally) there will be an assembly in Rome to talk about the problem, but, in the meanwhile, a lot of families are desperate and their mood won't be better after the assembly, considering that Italian bureaucracy is one of the slowest in the world!!!!!!

Hello, greetings, I would like to know more about Italy and its political class, Greetings.
I loves my country too although there are still so many problems in her. However, I do believe that she will good in the future.
I also hope that I could be one of person to make her better. Hope can be one of the government officer, or a social workers (something like that) to help others.
In my memory, there is a great empire (Rome) had been built-up in Italy, which no other countries had did that. So, I believe you can achieve your goal.
Well,welcome to the world of GLOBALIZATION,were little ones get squashed by the giants..
Some times i think that globalization(and E.U is one face of it)is no more than a conspiracy that was plotted by the multi national corporations..U find that decisions taken against small and family buisinesses are forced into action immediately,with out paying much attention to their suffering,in the other hand,,,you will find the big fish always win,,one way or another....
I feel sorry for those people
Hope their voices wi;ll be heards
And about beuracracy,,believe me ,,in libya it is a way of life..lol
