Congrats Giulio! Incredibly, things are changing even in Italy. I find saddening that the majority of the youth is either stuck in dead end jobs or in lowly-paying slightly career-related jobs. I try to push anyone I meet under 30 to just leave the country. The only other option is to embrace entrepreneurship, even though it requires one to grow a thick skin, stomach and an indestructible carapace. I might be wrong trying to de-populate a country of old farts, but everyone has the right to strive for the life they want to lead, or at least get to choose a job/career. One last note of folklore - I find Italian politics amusing: both left and right have been focusing on civil rights debate, without a grand scheme but rather a day-to-day routine of putting out fires as they come along (the motto being 'just kick the can down the road').

We need leaders with a vision, not social media influencers that follow behind whatever is trending on social media this week (aka the flavour of the week).

Once again, congratulations! :) Sorry for hijacking the celebrations with a rant.

Thanks to you for the comment, and no worries about the rant, as an Italian I agree with you.

Italian politicians are short sighted, they only care about the next election and not the nex generation.
