The government is already planning the 2027 budgets. To secure the necessary parliamentary support, it will have to disburse one hundred billion euros in agreements with satellite parties. This amount will be deducted from the general budget, directly impacting the quality of public services that citizens receive.
The cost of governance as a technological bottleneck 💻
In the field of development, this 100 billion allocation reduces the capacity to invest in digital infrastructure, administrative modernization, and connectivity. Projects such as the implementation of 5G in rural areas, state cybersecurity, or the digitalization of procedures are displaced by the payment of political favors. The result is a system that advances more slowly than citizen demand.
The auction of governability: bids and services 🏛️
In the end, governing resembles a television auction: the one who promises the most favors wins the bid. Citizens watch their money vanish in a budget magic trick. Meanwhile, public services are left with just enough. Hopefully, next year the government will take the stage with a budget that does not need to bribe anyone to get through.
