It is said that everything new is necessarily and unconditionally better than what is old.
Of course, freshness and, so to speak, virginity are in favor of the new: often, what is new does not pay the price to the infinite stains and scars that mark the past.
It is true, however, that “dant vulnera formam”, as postulated by the Vate. Sometimes, just what is experienced has charm and knowledge, which the neophyte does not possess. In short, to put it in a nutshell, it depends from case to case.
One thing, however, we can say with certainty, on the basis of recent experience: in politics, the new is often synonymous with incompetent, inexperienced if not, unfortunately, stupid, tout court.

Innovation is not to oppose technical and humanistic culture

The pentastellato desire to settle down economically is the oldest instinct in the world

Or, behind the novelty an instinct is masked which, unfortunately, is not so innovative, namely the sacred hunger for gold. The desire to settle down economically.
Let's take the example of Movement 5 Stars in Italy: we have rarely seen institutions stormed with such fiery pertinacity, with the same presumption and, alas, with such superlative political and administrative incapacity.
This, in truth, derives from the original vice of this similar party, created from scratch, we recall, by a comedian with ambitions of tribune of the plebs: the vice of believing that anyone can do anything. Which, at least in the phenomenal reality, is not realized.
We live in a complicated and complex world, in which, to do the simple things, to explain things plainly, you need gigantic skills and enormous previous baggage.
Don't be fooled by appearances: we're all good at making it easy, but to make difficult things understandable, you need skills and knowledge that are out of the ordinary, duly metabolized, digested and returned.
So, to present you with a rubber ball, which would wash as well as and better than detergent, a stroller with eighth grade may also be enough, but to deal with the great national and international issues it is better to have all the bubble papers in their place.
That is to say having a good apprenticeship behind you, since no one is born with infused science. Competence, that's the magic word. And competence means study, effort, application, acumen.
And specialization: it is unacceptable that a Minister of the Economy does not distinguish a bill from a bond, like that a Minister of Foreign Affairs is weak in geography or languages ​​or that a Minister of the Interior confuses the Constitution and ordinary laws.
Therefore, make way for the skills: to the real ones, not to the certifications bestowed by some compliant body, which are like the ranks of officer granted to some politician, without having even served in the military.

The future is already here: always to be understood, never to be wasted…

The "miracle" of Francesco Cossiga: naval officer yes, but without a single day of naja

Francesco Cossiga, for example, had obtained the gallons of naval officer, without a day of naja: Italian miracles.
We are tired of fake political scientists, fake nuclear engineers, fake humanists, who, in fact, don't even know how to blow their noses, without a stooge to hold their handkerchiefs.
We are equally fed up with gentucola, which has grown up like mushrooms do after a storm, which climbs towards powerful guiderdoni, with insults against its predecessors: it is not enough to point out the defects of politics, we must also propose some counter poison, some remedy.
Otherwise, one is not a statesman or even a simple peon: one is just a chocolatier. Covered in money and power, like chocolate covered in foil. But always and in any case chocolatiers.

"Exchange a look of peace", and the farce becomes tragedy
