Default interesting....is this accurate?

what do you all think of this article? The Annotico Report: Is Italy Flirting with Fascism? Quick Answer ??? NO !!!!!

I don't know how accurate this article is to the situation in Italy, but if it is true than i think you guys have a very good asset in the fact that the majority of businesses in the country are not corporate. This gives the people a stranglehold over the economy ideally, and has the potential to hold the government accountable to the taxpayers in my view.

From what i have read, Italian businesses are accountable to over 20,000 different laws that serve to limit growth and expansion. If this is true, can this be a big reason why the economy is suffering? I so very much hope that the country does not adopt the corporate mentality that the United States has. Your small coffee shops and stores are what make Italy so unique and is something that should be aspired to. I eagerly await your collective thoughts. Hope everyone is doing well.
