Why It Matters
The Italian government is defining the next budget law in a context of deficit constraints imposed by European rules.
"When we say that a courageous budget is needed, it does not mean being imprudent, but moving in advance of possible future recessions." This was stated by League senator Claudio Borghi, when asked about the maneuver and the call for prudence from the Minister of Economy Giancarlo Giorgetti.
Meloni, he observes, has been "compliant" with EU rules but now "she should not care" about chasing the deficit below 3%: "We have to get out of the Calimero syndrome, we have an economy that is largely better off than three quarters of Europe". "I understand Giorgetti", he adds, but "as the storm approaches" we need to "put more money into circulation to cushion the possible blows".
As prudent managers of public affairs we should move in advance", he highlights, indicating Quota 64 and the flat tax as indispensable priorities.
