I disastri di una finanza che distribuisce ricchezza senza produrla saranno pagati dai più weak. From the Republic, January 12, 2009 (mpg)
says Giovanni Sartori: "2009 will be the first year - I fear - a perfect economic storm. A storm that lasts as long as we're not going to understand how the money comes, what does wealth. " (Corriere della Sera, December 31) ... And I'm afraid that I was right. Then
accused the left of the responsibility to have misrepresented the issue by putting the issue of wealth distribution to the problem of wealth creation. Now, if it comes to this crisis, it seems to me that, for once, the "left" is innocent.
God only knows if the left has made fatal errors. Dented to the point of staying and lead us to rely on his critics not to fire on the ambulance. It's true. At a time when it had a favorable political balance of power, forced sometimes to wage demands (even if you have to qualify: In some cases, as in our present, an increase in wages is imposed because of the crisis).
But since this is the storm in which we find ourselves, I think it goes without saying that it was packaged in America by a right-wing government, in compliance with a policy that could not be more disegualitaria. The next European type, which implicitly refers Sartori, America does not even exist and therefore must be paid for not having committed the crime.
But there's more. The charge that Sartori moves to the left is perfectly suited to the right "liberal." What is, in fact, the "special film" of the crisis if not what to have for years distributed wealth exist? On three separate but converging planes.
At the global level, America has lived and still live with resources far superior to those that produce, funded by Asian savings of sobriety and realizing the parable of the rich debtor. In terms of the national economy the high pressure fuel, which has so far maintained its claim to high levels, is based on a huge debt of American families, with good Peace of Max Weber, have long ceased to spare. What quell'indebitamento which originated from the U.S. crisis, if not wealth distributed without being produced?
Finally, on the enterprise, large enterprise, the Corporation, what are the gains of the endless American managers, their fabulous salaries, their stock options, their settlements monumental, if not advantageous position: differences between market values \u200b\u200bthat they themselves are able to influence and actual values? This is also distributed wealth without being produced. Sartori
fought long and valiantly against the irresponsible proliferation of criminal conviction that population suffering hunger to death millions of innocent children. They can not escape the disasters of a finance based on the proliferation of irresponsible borrowing.
Finance has many merits. It provides liquidity to savings and investment. It helps, if managed with prudence, to cover the risks of investing, More. Within certain limits, even its "bets" may encourage investment decisions that are made. Within certain limits, which were swept away irresponsibly creating this latest crisis.
have sometimes been accused of "finanzobia. If it were up to me, it was said, there would not even check. No, I said and I repeat. The allowance we would be. There would be no bad checks.
remains the exemplary Sartori's statement on the need to understand how the money comes, what does wealth. Above all, and I think you will agree with me, the real wealth, not imaginary. And not at the expense of the innocent. It has been said that the debt goes to inordinate burden of our posterity. And Woody Allen said: What's wrong? After all, what did the posters for us? But it is not true. When the bubbles burst, and inevitably break out in our time are the contemporaries to pay. First, those who have been enriched with non-produced wealth, and then taken away from other: the unemployed, defrauded investors, taxpayers have to solve problems that others have created.
