The radicalization of the political struggle held hostage in the U.S.
The radicalization of the political struggle senseless is the reason of the expenditure freezes the federal state of the United States , where , from now on , will remain in business only by personnel with the essential duties. If , at first glance, could prefigure the clash between Democrats and Republicans , and in a certain way so, the real land of contrast is to be found all within the Republican Party . The most conservative of the major American parties is crossed by an internal struggle that rips in it and that , after having prevented all chance of playing during the last electoral contest to elect the President of the USA , it is dragging in a very awkward position and unpopular in the eyes of the entire electoral body in stars and stripes. Who holds hostage the party is the Tea Party movement , maximum concentration of pure conservatism of America's influence, which has influenced his judgments with the republican movement to enact a fundamentalist , that to bring forward their own ideas, not care of depriving a whole nation of the most basic services. What is the central point of contention , health care reform workhorse of Obama , it is actually an excuse for groped to resume share of a divided party and a sharp decline of acclaim and popularity. The strategy of the Tea Party is to hit the president in office just on the subject he loved the most : the extension of medical care to the majority of the American people . With the blackmail of the expenditure freezes hopefully so Obama to withdraw from a program from which will never come back , punishment tie the defeat more bitter , such as identifying the time of his presidential terms . In this war of nerves , those who lose out in the immediate is the country , which is private , especially in the most vulnerable of all those services that are not considered essential , but still serving the community. In the medium and long run, however , the losers will be the Republican Party , both in its entire view as political monolith that ascribe the responsibility of cutting services, and the parts that constitute it. If the followers of the Tea Party this showdown is sure to be appreciated, especially in the narrow circle of the most fundamentalist adherents , in the rest of the party can only signal the beginning of the end of that conception of the moderate right and patriotic to which recalled the values of the Republicans before the advent of America's most profound and reactionary tendencies , which refers to a more liberal conservatism , where the conception of the state is only one free from any obligation towards its own citizens , especially those of nature care. If the United States through a dramatic moment , politically, the Republican Party and especially the more moderate elements are in a storm total , which was the best evidence of this is constituted by the inability to oppose the tyranny of the Tea Party, for fear of incurring the barbs of its members , in the upcoming legislative elections. The leadership of the Republicans clearly have the fear of a split within the American right , but doing so does not bring into account the responsibility that is objective, the party as a whole in front of the American nation. This episode , which is still evolving and could have even more serious repercussions on the functioning of the country , performs as well as the largest of the Western democracies to be witnessing a radicalization of the conflict between opposing sides , denoting attitudes increasingly exasperated and illogical if but to get without posing any sort of limitations . You are experiencing the opposite of what should be a prerequisite of good governance : the ongoing dialogue and mediation in favor of the common good . On the contrary are raised ever higher detached which do not favor the search for common ground . The same thing is happening in Italy and other Western countries and is configured as a disease of the more mature democracies , which were resolved on reaching behaviors that fewer and fewer sterile allow you to give the right value to those shared requirements that should be the foundation of the state. Needless to say, this promotes behaviors that tend to populism and puts in crisis, as also highlighted by the European Union the highest concept of democracy as a system of peaceful coexistence. Even more serious is whether this trend is being carried out , not by people outside the institutions, but by institutional representatives , which should preserve the security of the system. It thus becomes understandable as the mission that the West had given , to export democracy, is beautifully failed.
