thanks, I've never thought of it, but the won't never do such things, that would have seen as 'peculato'. Here in Italy where corruption is a major problems that is an hyperlegislation to avoid it. Peculato would be, I believe, in English embezzlement
This is the main problem, the lacuna between people who can use technolgy and ppl who cant'. How do I do it?
Thinking that a politician is like a hero, someone who comes to save the world, that is rather naive. The politician must be checked and kept in line by his her base, his electorate.

Until people won't vote a socialist party things will go the way you've described. People can't childishly complain about politicians when they have voted them. In America, during the elections, a meager minority go to vote. Until people won't become politically active, why should things change?
I totally agree with that conceptual knot: people who live precarious lives aren't going to make any risky moves because they live drenched in anxiety of ending down on the street. And it's patent that every advance in technology will benefit an handful of mega rich, and the trickle down economy was a bull****. (Very interesting about this is Varoufakis and his concept of techno feudalism). Now, having said that: the only answer is political, the governments must build consistent safety nets to allow the growth of middle class, alleviate them the angst of turning into an army of homeless, so that when the basic needs are met: a house, cures and food, one can concentrate about how to plan and thrive in the future. The only method is taxing the rich, the tragicomically rich. https://digg.com/2020/this-scrolling-visualization-of-jeff-bezos-wealth-is-breaking-our-brains
Is it correct to write more worse?
