How To Adjust A Carburetor On A Yamaha Phazer



I read a fine article by Marcello Veneziani on The Journal of Monday, May 17.
E 'an article on corruption and dishonesty so prevalent in our country. I report the following excerpts. For me the most meaningful and acceptable: The eternal
Italy has raised the underworld the ridge ... Yes, we are not back to Tangentopoli. Corruption then was a system, there was a political organization of ill repute. Not today, corruption is not a system. But not because it is isolated, sporadic, crushed by the rigor and honesty, but because it is private, dusty, diffuse. It is not organized and do-it-yourself, rely on occasional cracks in the provisional cordate, more crafty around the neighborhood. Small cunning, great stupidity ... The underworld is a serious problem for the government, for the PDL and Berlusconi. And it is the confirmation of two things we say from a life that center-right, like it or not, a great leader and a great people voters - free, civil and reasoned - but not in the middle of a leadership worthy of the name. The other: the political needs of ideal passion, otherwise it is dark and gray, and leaves room for shady appetites. It takes content, projects, visions or not ... There is this corruption, this malfeasance? Here, I believe that in too many cases there. Then you can add that there is only right and there is certainly now. You can also say that the media and prosecutors exaggerate the extent of ill repute, who shoot on the pile, or confuse the offense with the malpractice ... But heck, there's the dishonesty. It is anger and disgust ... The real responsibility of Berlusconi is that he selected those around him and a ruling class proper. As often happens with strong personalities, self-centered, has neglected around him, along with capable and honest people, there was also Gentucca unscrupulous or without quality. Of course, the tragedy of politics is often the best that are out of politics, they are afraid of being overwhelmed as a theater or disgraced. And the additional tragedy is that often the good souls are incapable of governing, they have a practical sense, it takes perseverance, character, guts to embark on some business or manage heavy things, and often strong and tough characters who know how to manage them, are without scruples. But that is where we must leave ... must ... start the revolution of merit and quality. How? Launch three criteria and a proposal. The first: the political examined one by one and ask yourself what is left of them when they remove the charge that they cover. If anything is not worth nothing. Discard them. The second, to reopen the ruling classes who thinks, who is motivated, those who have passion for politics. Here it was no longer right, which once had a thousand faults, but had strong reasons ideals. You do not govern with the Pasionaria, I said it before, but serves as a criterion in selecting the political motivation, if not, whether the treat is hidden behind the head, then it is suspect and dangerous. The third criterion is the gender policy more open to women, are more attentive, more meticulous, more honest with the public money. Maybe use the seduction, sometimes sex, but women are almost never involved in corruption and bribery. Make room for them, not for the stupid logic of the shares rose, but because they are less prone to dishonesty. Finally, the proposal queen. The selection can be done only if it is part of a sweeping reform of the system: and then head to halve the political personnel. Volunteers in political will, but paid half the commissions. Halving the parliament, local authorities halved, halved the advice, the chairman, the authority. It should be clear in the half to take a selection. Perhaps facilitated by an electoral reform that includes commands such as democracy, the voters can choose the elect. But those are the steps required to redress the policy and cut the rot together with the costs ... (Marcello Veneziani)

It was quite a while 'I wanted to write on this subject which, as the Venetians, "is anger and disgust." His speech took away the words of mouth, almost entirely reflecting my thoughts. Although I think there is a good dose of utopia in its proposals, and I just think they should be taken seriously by those who govern us. From my point of view, the "revolution" brought by the Venetians should be even more radical. But who can implement it? We really in the hands of a caste that is integral and fundamental part of this system of ill repute, and that will never relinquish the privileges acquired. Unless someone will come to sweep it away. Attila
