In the video message at the end of February Obama announced his policy of redistribution of income and openly challenge the financial lobbies
The post Keeping Promises "Keep the promise", published yesterday on the White House blog is a true declaration of war on 5% of the richest Americans and their lobbying activities on behalf of the people's mandate "for change "received by the November election. Here's Obama's speech, followed by a translation of the central passage:
" I know that these decisions do not accord well with the special interests of lobbyists that have invested in an old way of doing business, and I know that , as we speak, they are organizing to fight. My message to them is this - Me, too. "
Today also Eugenio Scalfari Republic stresses on the scope of this passage:" Obama has raised the bar of the objectives and, in addition to macroeconomic and structural reforms has included a social redistribution income than ever before. It 's the case that has blown its moorings behind addressing the clash with the wealthier classes, minority in number but a majority in the possession and control of wealth and social power. Not even Roosevelt had come to much and do not talk about Kennedy or even Clinton. This we are seeing is the first real turn left the United States of America. "
In the afternoon, the news has disappeared from the titles on the homepage of the Republic (including the publishing of its founder, though dated now), as well as those of the Courier and the Press. The Courier editorial Angelo Panebianco explains "the pericoli” che la classe dirigente italiana vede nel nuovo corso di Obama (pericoli non per le sue rendite, beninteso, ma “per la democrazia”).
Già all’indomani dell’investitura, a noi era risultato chiaro che Obama, finanziato ed eletto grazie alla partecipazione popolare organizzata in rete, non avrebbe tradito i suoi elettori tanto facilmente, e che il profilo moderato del suo governo era un modo per pararsi le spalle in vista di politiche più radicali.
