So what? He's been clearly far right leaning since before he purchased Twitter.
He's been one of the main supporters of the Trump campaign and he's vocal about his political ideas.
Twitter has no credibility as a neutral platform as long as it's run by him
For sure the situation won't improve under the current government, but there have been improvements in the past.
TBH I just hope that honest taxpayers (which I'm sure are the majority of people, given employees can hardly avoid taxes) will realize that this system is a problem, and start pushing for a more just fiscal system.
Indeed, the Italian state is totally capable of enforcing taxes.
However it lacks the political will to go after (especially some categories of) tax evaders, as they're a big source of votes in particular for rightwing governments like the current one.
As an Italian I agree that taxes are rather high, but enforcing them only on a subset of citizens while happily allowing another subset to easily avoid them is definitely not the solution.
I'd be much happier if the government enforced taxes for everyone, which would then allow it to either improve services or reduce taxes.
It's not really an arms race, it's more an inbalance between different categories of citizens.
Employees can hardly avoid taxes (as long as they're regular workers), while autonomous workers ("partita IVA") and small companies/entrepreneurs can easily avoid large amounts of taxes.
The latter are a huge source of votes especially for rightwing parties in Italy, so it's not uncommon for governments to make it easier to avoid taxes for them.
The current rightwing governemnt went as far as calling taxes "state's pizzo" (where "pizzo" is the payment Mafia asks for protection), it raised the limit for usage of cash, and it's discussing measures to forgive debt of tax evaders ("pace fiscale").
So no, it's not an arms race, it's just that it's convenient to let it happen for some political parties.
I’m pretty sure that if you need some stock to grow in order to support your children, then your influence on a public company is virtually irrelevant.
