I've received that post 5 or 6 times :-),
so I must say that the astonishment
is something you can even breathe
and touch here in Italy.

But I'm inclined to think there is
no such a thing like 'Italy'.
There are different regions, cultures,
traditions, populations, ....
As we usually say: 'Italians
are ... the others, not us'
(meaning that we are the good 
ones).
 
In example, I know that in Bozen (Sudtirol) 
the electricity company is very efficient.
Here (in Abruzzo) the same company
is terrible (or worse).

Nobody knows exactly the reasons why Italy 
is not a 'normal' occidental country.
But, for sure, many principles are not working
properly here. Principle of legality, 
principle of citizenship (citizens are
not slaves), principle of actuality-effectivity
of punishment, principle of responsability,
principle of leadership (if such a principle
exists), etc. 

It is a long, sad story.

Saluti,
