“We are not a little alarmed by the news, however widely predictable, relating to the many unpaid bills by families and businesses”. Francesca Intermite, President of the employers' association CasaImpresa comments on the data recorded in this particular moment throughout the national territory, and that people live in a more aggressive way in a complicated territory such as the Ionian one.
“An article in the Sole 24 Ore photographs the current situation (data February 2022) and highlights the great difficulties with which consumers and entrepreneurs must measure up, who are no longer able to reimburse their expenses. This obviously creates a strong discomfort in the management of families, but also of businesses which at some point risk being unable to keep their activities open. But in the same hours we read, and we can not help but share, the words of the president of National Confesercenti Patrizia De Luise, from which she exudes an intense concern for what will be ".
"To the difficulties generated by the pandemic for Covid, and to the need to first endure forced closures and after an increase in expenses to comply with anti-contagion measures, there is now added the exaggerated increase in the prices of electricity and gas in the first place, thanks to the war in Ukraine. At the expense - continues Francesca Intermite - in addition to consumers who must necessarily give up something, the sectors of commerce, catering and tourism. And if this phenomenon is felt in an important way throughout Italy, it becomes intolerable in a context in which there has been a long fight for the development of an alternative economy to large industry. It is certain - concludes the entrepreneur - that if interventions are not planned to alleviate the pressure, all the ongoing efforts aimed at setting a different future for the city of the two seas will be nullified ”.
