"Gasoline has seen a reduction of
18.2% in consumption while diesel fuel has seen a 15.6%
reduction, both with respect to September 2011 ... the sales of new cars have shown a contraction of 25.5% with respect to Sep 2011 ... I don't know if you like to define that "decline" or, simply,
"collapse". Surely, something bad is going on with Italy and the
measures that the government is taking against financial collapse look
more and more like the attempt of curing a cough by strangling the
patient ... Traffic is normal everywhere ... And yet, there are ominous signs all over that "something" is going to happen."
