The emperor has no clothes. So what?

In the famous fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen it was a child that pointed out the truth everyone had been refusing to admit. Nobody knows what happened later. We do know what currently happens in Italy: Just nothing.

Maybe in Italy the problem is not (much) that things are not said in TV or written on newspaper. The problem is that nobody seem to care even if the matter is very serious. On BBC website I find what follows:

What about Italy?

Let’s leave apart for a while all the news about Italian Premier and pick something else.

As the website Lavoce.info has explained in detail 400 Millions of Italian taxpayer’s money have been wasted because northern league did not want European election and Referendum to be hold in the same date. This party accounts for some 8% of Italian population.

Now the question is: has anyone seen some street demonstration? As Government or Northern League consensus decreased? Do Italians understand that were their money to be wasted? Are they so much familiar with this kind of news?
