I'm not for not getting involved. Italy as Greece will never get elections if the results are not the ones the EU likes. The fact that suddenly Mario Monti and Papademos were put by the EU instead of voted (although extremely corrupted) PMs says a lot about democracy in both of these countries. Especially Greece of course.
That said, my comment didn't wanted to sound like it did. I should have been a little more careful and detailed... What I mean was that it's very relative on how one perceives democracy. For sure in Greece there's no democracy in the way most of people of a democratic government. On the other hand of course we're not banana-democracies either.
But I feel that instead of going to a more democratize governance worldwide, we're moving towards xenophobia, intolerance and uncertainty.
Anyway wanted to just clear out a couple of things.
- davidw 13y ago> Italy as Greece will never get elections if the results are not the ones the EU likes. Nearly 20 years of Berlusconi says otherwise, along with the large proportion of the vote that Beppe Grillo got during the last election.
- atmosx 13y agoSure, that's why when things got out of control, they put Mario Monti and removed Berlusconi. Suddenly the population wasn't wise enough to make the right choice.
