Description[?]:
| Mr. Ferrari, We know that for many collegues democracy within the workplace or a real democracy where everybody has the same chances to be elected is something extremely dangerous for our economy. But history taught us that the abolition of slavery was seen the same way. Probably also at that time there were wealthy politician saying that the abolition could be detrimental for the economy, and that the politician's duty is to protect the profit of the rich instead of creating a truly democratic society to live in. But history will prove us to be right again. Thank you, Piersandro Haddad |
