2/26 Homework
This article is about the recent elections in Italy and how there was no clear winner from the results. About 57% of Italians voted for parties that were against austerity. The biggest party that won was the five star party which won 25% of the vote. The current party in power received just 10% of the vote. This has sent shares world wide tumbling.
The author I believe makes an argument since he gives three possible options for Italy's government: they can form a national government, Grillo can change his position and form an alliance with Bersani, or there could be a re-election in the next 3-4 months. The author I believe emotionalize or at least sensationalizes the topic. I will give a quote from the article, "Already the signs are that this political explosion will reignite the financial crisis".
