I love the EU - if our economic situation is as it is now, it's the fault of a corrupt, self-centered, narrow-minded political class (mostly Christian Democrats) whose main interest was to keep their privileges and their wealth together. That's how our public debt got so big. If it wasn't for Berlusconi and his appallingly mafia-friendly legislation, we'd probably be in a better situation right now. I'm not saying we wouldn't have any problems - we'd just have fewer.

Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
