Adapted from IlCorriere : In beautiful desk diaries and pocket diaries Senate specifically designed for 2009 by the fashion house Nazareno Gabrielli, including 365 days he lacks a smartly annotated. The day with the reminder: "Cut the cost of politics." Starting, of course, the cost of the diaries: 260,000 €. Half a billion dollars. For custom notebooks. Would cost more than the gross annual salary of twelve police officers to take and send in areas at risk. The double, triple or even quadruple what can allocate on average for every search on childhood leukemia, the City of Hope in Padua, the structure that operates through private donations without the beak of a penny and public houses of the Italian database children with cancer. We feel we already la lagna: uffa, questi attacchi alle istituzioni democratiche! Imbarazza il paragone coi finanziamenti alle fondazioni senza fini di lucro? Facciamone un altro. Stando a uno studio del professor Antonio Merlo dell’Università della Pennsylvania, che ha monitorato gli stipendi dei politici americani, quelle agendine costano da sole esattamente 28.000 euro (abbondanti) più dello stipendio annuale dei governatori del Colorado, del Tennessee, dell’Arkansas e del Maine messi insieme. È vero che quei quattro sono tra i meno pagati dei pari grado, ma per guidare la California che da sola ha il settimo Pil mondia-le, lo stesso Arnold Schwarzenegger prende (e restituisce: «Sono già ricco») € 162,598 gross, that is less than a Regional Council of Abruzzo.
are all U.S. government to receive relatively low: on average € 88,523 a year. Lordi. Less than half, according to official data published by the Conference of Regions and Autonomous Provinces, the gross salary of a counselor Lombard. Or, if you will, a quarter of what earns per month, the President of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano Luis Durnwalder, taking home € 320,496 gross per year. That is to say almost € 36,000 more than it earns, the President of the United States. (...) If it is true that there are the diaries or menus for ten euro to bring ruin to the Italian State, it is equally true, however, che non saranno le sforbiciatine date dopo il deflagare delle polemiche a raddrizzare i bilanci d’un sistema mostruosamente costoso. Né tanto meno a salvare la cattiva coscienza del mondo politico. Certo, l’abolizione dell’insopportabile andazzo di un tempo, quando bastava denunciare la perdita o il furto di un oggetto per avere il risarcimento («Ho perso una giacca di Caraceni». «Prego onorevole, ne compri un’altra e ci porti lo scontrino»), è un’aggiustatina meritoria. Come obbligati erano la soppressione a Palazzo Madama del privilegio del barbiere gratuito e l’avvio di un nuovo tariffario (quasi) di mercato: taglio 15 euro, taglio con shampoo 18, barba 8, frizione 6… E così the cancellation of the funding of 200,000 euro for the English courses that do not attend any. And many other little things again. A little cut here, a limatina there ... (...) The rest, however, good night. The bad habit of the last twenty years has been that, by force of inertia, the costs continued to rise. To the point that the three Quaestors Comincioli Romano (PDL), Benedetto Adragna (Pd) and Paul Franco (Lega Nord), in summer 2008, admitted writing an unconditional surrender in the budget bitterly: "We could not achieve the objective reversal of the trend of expenditure in this regard on the guidelines set by the document. "
Score: current expenditure Palazzo Madama, in 2008, rose by almost 13 million since 2007 to break through the ceiling of € 570 million and a half. Enormity: a million and € 772,000 to the Senate. With an increase of 2.20 percent. Significantly higher than planned inflation of '1.7 percent.
Blame for certain expenses not easily understandable by an ordinary citizen: € 19,080 in six months rent for ornamental plants, € 8,200 for 'socks and tights of service "(in just three months), 56,000 for' shirts of service (six months ), € 16,200 for 'supply of clothing for motorcyclists service. " But most of the new annuities to not re-elected 57 members and € 7,251,000 to pay for the unstitched "Checks of solidarity" to the senators lost their seats. As Clemente Mastella. Whose "check for reintegration into social life" (not even a prisoner was discharged by the nation's prisons) Famiglia Cristiana, which shocked even asked him to give up those € 307,328 and give it to charity. Yes, hello, "The sum of it by law to all former MPs." Fine.
With the old rules, the 'reintegration into society "by Armando Cossutta has cost € 345,600, to 278,516 Alfredo Biondi, Francesco D'Onofrio to 240,100. A toll paid, of course, by the Chamber. Where Angelo Sanza, for example, found a consolation for the farewell a Montecitorio in un accredito bancario di 337.068 euro. Più una pensione mensile di 9.947 euro per dieci legislature. Pari a mezzo secolo di attività parlamentare. Teorici, si capisce: grazie alle continue elezioni anticipate, in realtà, di anni «onorevoli » ne aveva fatti quattordici di meno.
Un dono ricevuto anche da larga parte dei neo-pensionati che erano entrati in Parlamento prima della riforma del 1997 e come abbiamo visto si erano tirati dietro il privilegio di versare con modica spesa i contributi pensionistici anche degli anni saltati per l’interruzione della legislatura. Come il verde Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio, andato a riposo a 49 anni appena compiuti con gli 8.836 euro al mese che spettano a chi ha fatto 5 legislature pur essendo was elected in 1992 only 16 years instead of 25. Or the Democrat Rino Piscitello: 7,958 € for four legislatures despite not left the House 20 years but only 14. Just like the forzista Antonio Martusciello. But, with its 46 years, not only scored a record baby pensioners this week but has now found a 'pocket money' extra as president of board of directors of Mistral Air: the airline of the Italian post office.
There is hardly surprising that, in a way, the costs of the buildings continued to rise? Quirinale, Senate Chamber, the constitutional court, and CNEL CSM costs all together in 2001 one billion and 314 million euro rose in five years one billion and 774 million. A monstrous sum. But even lower than the reality, the first statement said Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa: it was necessary to include correctly in the account at least another two hundred million euro so far put in charge to other government departments. So in 2007 all institutional bodies together would weigh on the public coffers for a billion and 945 million. To increase in 2008 up to one billion and 998 million. At that point, remember, pandemonium broke out in October 2007, but how, after so many promises of cuts, the rising cost of another 53 million euro, or about the annual budget of the British monarchy? Instant reverse. First, a downward revision. Then another. Up to down to one billion and 955 million. "Only" milioncini ten more than in 2007. By the Quirinale gleefully informed that he had cut, starting from cuirassiers (mirror is commonly used to make the eyes sparkle of Simple Souls), 3 per thousand.

... Well it did not happen. Nell'assestamento budget for 2008 the numbers have continued to rise and climb up to 13 August to 2 billion and 55 million €. One hundred million dried over what was predicted in a riot of waving flags to celebrate the "cuts." End result: the increase should have been virtuously content in 0.5 per cent has proved to be at least 5.6: eleven times higher.
