“The Italy-system is a square wheel that does not turn: it advances with difficulty, dividing each rotation into four units, with an inhuman effort for every quarter of a turn completed, between heavy thuds and hesitations. It has never been seen so well as during this year exceptional, under the blows of the epidemic “. The 54th Censis Report highlights this. “The virus has hit a society that is already tired”, it is noted: “This year, however, we have been unable to see” and “the path of growth envisaged is envisaged as a modest trampling of announcements that have already been pronounced too many times: a low valley path more than a high street “.
The report also reveals that almost 80% of Italians say they are in favor of tightening in view of the upcoming holidays.
“In view of Christmas and the New Year – it reads – 79.8% of Italians ask not to loosen the restrictions or to tighten them up. 54.6% will spend less on gifts to put under the tree, 59, 6% will cut expenses for the New Year’s Eve dinner. For 61.6% the New Year’s party will be sad and resigned. All will not go well: 44.8% of Italians are convinced that we will come out worse from the pandemic ( only 20.5% believe that this experience will make us better) “.
Furthermore, “90.2% of Italians are convinced that the coronavirus emergency and the lockdown have damaged the most vulnerable people the most, widening the already existing social inequalities”. If on the one hand, from March to September 2020 “there are 582,485 more individuals living in families who receive a citizenship grant (+ 22.8%)”, on the other 1,496,000 individuals (3% of adults) they have a wealth that exceeds one million dollars (about 840,000 euros): of these, 40 are billionaires and have increased both in number and in assets during the first wave of the epidemic.
According to Censis, then, the distance learning experiment during the pandemic does not seem to have worked properly. “For 74.8% of executives, distance learning has actually widened the learning gap between students” even though “95.9% strongly or fairly agree that Dad was a useful experiment. for teaching “.
“37% of Italians use public transport much less than before, replacing them with cars, bicycles or walking when possible”. This was revealed by Censis in its 54 / mo annual report. “82.5% of SMEs – we read – believe that in the future no worker will be able to operate in a smart working regime. The percentage drops to 66.4% among larger companies (10-49 employees). estimate that 14 million people, between the private sector and public employees, will operate at their usual places of work and 3.5 million with new methods that do not provide for a constant daily presence “.
