My friend, money is needed now, not next year. By next year some families and companies will have disappeared.""We propose solutions. The first thing we propose to the government and half of the people here want is zero bureaucracy. Therefore, supply Italy with works, roads, motorways, ports, airports and railways (...). Companies, rather than financing, are asking for simplicity, speed and efficiency."“If companies do not work, if Italians do not work, the debt does not decrease. And if we have to wait for permission from Europe to go back to work, we will have to wait 6 months... we won't be able to do it."
