From Artan fuga
During the Covid period, towards the end, while students were learning remotely while staying close to their homes, I said to liven up communication a bit.
I asked them a question: what is the socio-professional status of men in general, as "heads" of households in your city? These were more or less questions for small or medium-sized cities.
Without denying the specifics, the standard and pattern of response was more or less:
1. The majority, especially young and middle-aged people, emigrate. They are immigrants.
2. Some work as municipal employees. These numbers have increased significantly.
3. Another part are workers for municipal or public services such as water, electricity, cleaning, parks (although there are no parks), etc. So, generally they depend on the municipality.
4. Some work in an enterprise that receives tenders from the municipality, or has benefited from public properties. The owner is both the owner, and the ideologue, and the political boss of his workers, and the propagandist, and the video moderator. He tells the workers that if we want to continue working, we must be on good terms with the municipality and the state. It is a discovery made in Italy in the model of the slums in the 20s - 30s.
5. Another part are heads of households who receive social assistance from the municipality.
6. Another part has small businesses, like cafes or a coffee shop where these first groups that move around the municipality go to drink coffee.
7. There are also some who have problems that only the municipality can solve, someone needs to build a house, another needs to fix up the yard, another needs to expand the bathroom, another has a burst manhole in the road, and so on.
From then on I understood the nonsense:
In a large part of the territory, it is not the city that determines what the municipality will be like, but rather the municipality that determines the city.
I remembered what a European philosopher said: When the state shapes and deforms society like plasticine, everything has come to an end!
It doesn't matter how the city is doing, what matters is that the money flowing from the municipality goes to those who depend on the municipality or a job in the public sector in their lives.
You can be unhappy as much as you want, but someone comes to your ear and says, look, if you don't understand who you should vote for, this socio-economic status you have, flies. Call your mind. That's enough!
The discovery of the century, the unhappy who are forced to vote for the policy that makes them unhappy.
This was the model I derived from many stories! (A2 Televizion)
