I'm not against helping people with tickets and allowances, after all that's the whole point of scholarships isn't it?

But I do understand why many Italians are so upset about the amount.

I worked for two years (and paid my share of taxes) to finance my studies I don't understand why you assumed I don't pay taxes.

same goes for scholarships, actually more because we don't have families outside the EU
