A bit 'of months ago I found myself to "discuss" rights with my age on FB. I published a post expressing my thoughts lay on de facto unions and gay marriage.
This friend challenged my position by stating that it was conceivable that the parliament lost time to legislate on matters of interest to a small minority of citizens. I pointed out that much often the parliament legislates on matters of collective interest starting from the instances of small circles of people such as in the field of family law. I took the example of divorce law, drafted and promulgated under the stimulus of interest "bourgeois" in a social context still strongly linked to religious institutions. The need for legislation to regulate the termination of a marriage was not a necessity common to all Italians, but to dissolve his family ties had a right to acquire all the Italians. The same was true for the voluntary interruption of pregnancy that did not mean that every woman would have exercised the right to abortion but that allowed women who had chosen to do, act with respect to themselves and the law.
not remember exactly how but we ended up discussing the status of secularism and my partner came out with this statement: "The constitution states that Italy is a Catholic state and therefore must defend the Church. Now, ignoring my reaction to the limits of a seizure, said Quoting Article 7 of the Constitution: "The State and the Catholic Church are, each in its own, independent and sovereign. Their relations are regulated by the Lateran Pacts. Changes to the Treaties accepted by both parties do not require the procedure for constitutional amendment. "
In my reply did not follow No answer.
Spectator this "dispute" was my colleague in his early twenties who looked puzzled this writer, in front of incredulous to the fact that I knew quite well the basic text of our Republic. At that point, my character came out of "teacher" position and the worst question you can do to a "young", "Do you remember what the article says one of the Constitution? Come on, it is not difficult ...". Silence.
to take the license must pass a theory test that proves you know the rules of the game and a practice in which those rules apply. To pass the examination to be given an interview in which enunciated what are your skills and then a probationary period, which demonstrates to be able to perform a specific task.
I know that voting is a right, but sometimes I wish it were accessible by methods a bit 'more "selective" than just coming of age.
Ideally, arrived at the eighteenth birthday, every Italian had a "social order" allowing it to vote in good conscience.
Also, work is entitled, but mica can design a bridge if you have studied chemistry.
I'm not saying that only citizens should vote who are interested in politics but I would not mind that the voter was issued after passing a short quiz in civics.
Perhaps in this way, would produce a double result, to have a population more aware and to have more capable governors.
