This time the title of the thread was easy to find. E 'is enough to copy in full the first two lines of the article Journal of the South reported on its front page a few days ago, and that, by a strange irony of fate, although explosive in its content, was not bothered a lot of attention almost by anyone, even by regional media (perhaps too busy with other matters of broader?).
Rileggiamone just published a summary on the front page, leaving aside the large depth reported by the same number of newspaper inside it, without omitting anything, but referring to the generalities of the "suspects" only with the initials for a sort of atavistic shame, at least on our part:
"POR AND LAW 488: the world of fraud in Calabria moves around an acronym and in single digits.
The acronym refers to funding programs that the EU has allocated member states and, therefore, to Italy, the figure, however, is the numerical indication that the Legislature has given to a law designed to encourage the development of entrepreneurship in the South. Both of them represent a synthesis of failure economic, business and politics.
The flood of money flowed through the valleys and along the Sila and Aspromonte lush plains of Sybaris and Gioia Tauro was in fact drained by hordes of fixers and unscrupulous businessmen who fattened their coffers and never start production sectors that offer significant implications for employment. The investigation conducted by the Guardia di Finanza ... has run ended with the arrest (at home) entrepreneur FG, 50, of R., of the President of the Consorzio Terre di Calabria ", GBP, 40, of C., the director of the work that had been funded, FS, 28, of C., and two regional officials, AR, 60, of C. and GDF, 47, of C., involved in the affair in the guise of testing of the facilities financed with Por The defendants allegedly engaged in trickery or deceit in inducing error is in the Calabria region, provision of the contribution of € 1,850,000, and the Inland Revenue of R, which has even a VAT refund of 663.000euro to the company under investigation.
The picture emerged from the investigation does not reveal, however, nothing new or shocking. The "technical" approach to undue public money earned is always the same. The only shocking thing is, if anything, the failure of the supervisory bodies. Before the Finance and other institutional representatives of the judiciary should have intervened. "(Journal of South n.58/286 of 17/10/2009, p.1)
It turns out therefore to use the same language of the chronicler, a world of corruption and profiteering put in place by hordes of unscrupulous people ready to drink the hefty rivers of money that EU funds are making it rain on Calabria for some years now, without it being seen benefits and impact on the development of this region, which De Magistris (remember?) just two years ago said that the European capital which had piovuti9 are raining down on him and could have become far richer than Switzerland!

There is so much to ask what they think and how we judge the European countries "with Italy," this flood of money to lavish regions such as Calabria and is used to finance in regions, provinces, municipalities, mountain communities, social institutions, educational institutions, religious institutions and even specific organizations, not only serious projects, but now also projects the brainy (we would have to compile a long list, and highly entertaining).
Here's what he wrote about one of the most influential newspapers' s
Europe, the German Der Spiegel just a year ago (when even the investigation of the Guardia di Finanza in Calabria had not brought into the open what should be considered one of the biggest scandals of recent times):
"Calabria distributes millions of European funds in famous footballers.
The southern Italian region of Calabria is small, poor, mafia - and official partner of the Italian national football team. To attract tourists, Calabria pours millions into the pockets of some famous players - with EU funds.
Brussels - The game was still zero to zero, the public at the "Stadio Comunale" of the Tuscan city of Pistoia bored. The match between the Olympic teams of Italy and Romania, and 'On the eleventh minute. At that moment something happened and that 's been almost unnoticed to the attention of the spectators but a few hundred miles to the south was awaited with great expectations: the billboards in the stadium had changed the message shown. On a brilliant blue background, you could now read "Regione Calabria". A few seconds later a further change, a new text, translated into German, bearing the inscription "Calabria offers you more."
So, on July 22 this year, during the race under-23 national soccer team, the poor southern region of Calabria and 'become an official partner of the Italian national football team. " Money used "largely uncontrolled" The partnership has naturally a certain cost.
The region pays 1.8 million euros for a period of three years for the "sponsorship" of the "Squadra Azzurra. We also want to invest nearly five million for the broadcast and publication of announcements and advertisements in newspapers and television stations. The exact amount invested are still unclear because 'the data are contradictory.
One thing is' certain: half of this amount comes from Brussels, from regional aid funds are intended to improve facilities in economically disadvantaged areas with the intent to provide them with an economic boost and encourage the creation of jobs.
Another example of an absurd system of funding critical to the center of Brussels for a long time. Last year, under the heading "regional aid" were handed out 45.5 billion euros. However, since 'in the 27 member countries, faced with such a' high availability 'of money is not a sufficiently significant number of projects, some of the money will not be' not recovered. Another example of an absurd system - in Calabria and certainly not the only one.
"Many things do not work," said another European Parliament, the British Liberal Bill Newton-Dunn, who recently participated in an inspection in the south of Italy with a commission of the Budget Control Committee. His conclusion: "More controls" on the destination of EU funds from Brussels are urgently needed specialists. Commissioner Danuta Hübner, responsible for regional aid, has asked the regional administration of Catanzaro in Calabria to provide detailed information on the case by next Monday '. In this' at the region should also explain the utility and eventual success of previous campaigns done with millions of euros in EU funding.
In one of these, the tabloid photographer Oliviero Toscani had photographed groups of young people of Calabria who were then accompanied by slogans such as "Crime? Of course, we Calabrian 'and so' and then published in many newspapers and in television commercials. The campaign was aimed at reducing prejudice by which the inhabitants of Calabria are mostly members of the mafia.
an unfortunate action. In fact, on August 15 in Duisburg last year were killed by a hail of bullets six suspected gangsters. All tracks of the murderers, who is victims, bring in Calabria. "[Der Spiegel, Thursday, September 25, 2008].

we will not dwell further with our comments, perhaps out of place, but it seems well suited as a new logo for Por Calabria this little image that we would like to propose the closing of this long thread and there seems to be a more fitting , the seal of a deal, or nearly so. What do you think?
