A thief is always
not possible. When you think you have hit rock bottom always get someone to dig even more, making the fund infinitely deep. On March 31 he was again arrested Mario Chiesa, this time for fraud for the trafficking of hazardous waste. Again, since he was arrested for the first time February 17, 1992.
thanks to our many Italian media have forgotten who was the Church, especially what he did. Fortunately, there are internet and a handful of journalists in leg
Mario Chiesa, a Socialist and chairman of the Pio Albergo Trivulzio, was arrested by the police coordinated by the deputy prosecutor Pietro Di Luca Magni thanks to the cooperation of the entrepreneur.
Magni, which was to be at church a bribe of 14 million out of a contract just won, and went the office of the socialist with a hidden camera, as agreed with Di Pietro, when paying the police burst into the room shutting the Church who defended himself by saying: "This money is mine!", but the soldiers of the state: " And no! These are our money. "
From this fact began its investigation of corruption "Clean Hands" that swept the major Italian parties including the Socialist Party, the Christian Democrats, the PRI, the League, the Communist Party, and involved mayors and councilors to a former head of government.
The bribes were distributed as follows: the parties elected to turn a cashier only charged with collecting kickbacks from companies corrupting appointed an ambassador for then share them according to precise percentages to the various parties (37% to Psi, 18.75% to PCI, the DC 18.75, 17% at PSDI, PRI and 8% for the rest to the other except MSI, green and radical and extreme left). This refutes the lie told by the Socialists and Christian Democrats, according to which they were forced to steal for the party to fight the communists who received the rubles from Moscow. It 's a lie because they were often cashiers Communists to carry his share of bribes payable to the DC and the PSI to their secretaries and vice versa.
This is the first dance. The second is that politicians do not steal for themselves but just to keep the parties. To prove the falsity of the legend is borne The three cases of 'thieves' most famous era Tangentopoli:
Craxi, secretary of the Socialist Party, sentenced to 5 years and 6 months for corruption in the process and Eni-Sai
to 4 years and 6 months for illegal financing for bundles of the Milan subway. To defend the system of bribes called Mario Chiesa a "rogue" isolated and then in turn be investigated for corruption, illegal financing and corruption
bought a jet for a value of 3 billion, made real estate transactions in New York and Milan Gifts to his mistress broadcaster Anja Pieroni, Roma Cine Tivù, which cost 100 million lire per month; Then, again for Pieroni, bought Ivanohe the hotel in Rome and a villa, a villa and Gifts 500 million to his brother Antonio Craxi, a follower of the guru Sai Baba in India, and finally 80 million cost to rent a villa with his son Bobo.
addition was also an account holder in a Swiss bank for 50 billion lire. Luckily, he stole for the party, imagine what he would do if he had stolen for himself! I just can not imagine, might have robbed the old ladies down the street and robbed the rooms in homes. If Mario Chiesa was one of many rogues, Craxi it was undoubtedly the king.
Gianni De Michelis, a Socialist, convicted of bribery Enimont and those on the highways of the region: The Venice Court wrote that used bribery to "feed his princely lifestyle. He organized a party with 2000 guests in Venice and another in Rome to rent the entire racecourse Tor di Valle. Once arrested he left a score to settle with the Plaza Hotel where he stayed for a total of 490 million lire. He lived in a suite at the Imperial Hotel that spending a day with only 370 thousand pounds extra (canapés, champagne and caviar).
Duilio Poggiolini, socialist and former P2, sentenced to 7 years and 6 months for corruption: Director General of the Ministry of Health, was in charge of deciding which drugs should be reimbursed by the NHS. It was estimated that in that sector turned around 7mila miliardi di lire di tangenti. Ecco, però lui era l’eccezione in un sistema marcio, rubava davvero per il partito e non per se stesso, bisogna ammetterlo! Infatti il pool di Milano trovò 18 conti bancari svizzeri ricollegabili a Poggiolini contenenti circa 100 miliardi. Poi, nel caveau di una banca campana i magistrati recuperarono delle casse contenenti Sterline, monete d’oro, Ecu, Kruger Rand sudafricani e alcune monete antiche provenienti dagli scavi di Ercolano!
Come se non bastasse, la Guardia di Finanza si presentò a casa di Poggiolini con due camion vuoti e sequestrò: 60 quadri di pittori “sconosciuti” come Picasso, Modigliani e Dalì; un centinaio di lingotti d’oro, una cassa colma sapphires, rubies, diamonds, a collection of gold objects and a number of rubles, which are also gold, Tsar Nicholas II.
That day also happened a little curious thing that went down in history. A financier inadvertently struck and knocked to the ground and an ottoman, curious, opened it, found sewn into Treasury bills worth several billion and several gold bars.
After the description of the fortunes that would dwarf any pirate treasure chest, let the consequences Tangentopoli had on our country. About
cost us 10 trillion per year and the incomplete construction of numerous public works unnecessary. This perché per ingrassare gli imprenditori, e di conseguenza le mazzette calcolate in base alle percentuali sugli appalti, i politici approvavano la costruzione di opere non necessarie gonfiando anche il valore dell’appalto. I colletti bianchi, ben oleati dalle cospicue tangenti, fingevano di non vedere che le aziende corruttrici modificavano in corso d’opera le costruzioni per ottenere altro denaro dallo Stato, e che non portavano a termine il lavoro per risparmiare sui materiali. Non c’è da stupirsi se Striscia la notizia mostra in continuazione edifici pubblici mai completati costati allo Stato “un occhio della testa”.
Un esempio eclatante di quanto fossero (e siano tutt’ora)sconvenienti per noi cittadini queste robbery is the third line of the Milan metro, which has cost more than four times the subway in Hamburg.
addition, the debt-GDP ratio, which in 1980 was stable at 60%, climbed to 70% in '83, during the period of the Craxi government ('83-'87) grew exponentially to reach 92% in 1992 came to 118% and the Lira went accordingly the European Monetary System. The Amato government was forced to introduce the forced levy of 6 per thousand in the bank accounts of all savers to address the dire conditions in which they found the state's (now Tremonti will do something similar, but much more subtle, taking money deposited in so-called dormant accounts. These accounts belonging to Italians abroad and those people who for more than 10 years do not make transactions on their accounts, pending Fruttino money with small interests. And he wants them to him hoping that escaped are not aware of the maneuver. And good Tremonti!).
The television, however, have made sure that we forget all that and that we allow to Berlusconi (creature Craxi) to admit that the founding father of Forza Italy is just "Booty" Craxi, the symbol of Tangentopoli. In fact, the attacks by the press to Di Pietro is on the agenda, is constantly being accused of having committed many mistakes in its investigation and had arrested many innocent people. But even Here the figures speak for themselves: "Clean Hands" investigation was under judicial errors in the history of the Republic, only 5% of the accused was acquitted on the merits (as against the average of 30-40%) and 1300 convictions were final.
Unfortunately, the statistics and the judgments of the Supreme Court are of no use if the television erase the memory of the Italians and praise shady characters like Craxi, suddenly became a martyr of the country, allowing the parties to reappoint to the top of the institutions responsible for the most serious scandal of corruption in Europe.
Just a few days ago, in fact, the news that will Cirino Pomicino candidate for the European elections in June. For you comments.
