Questa me l'ero persa!!!!

Ho letto nelle notizie di yahoo che in Italia un partito di destra , MSI fiamma tricolore, paga se i neonati vengono chiamato col nome di Mussolini o di sua moglie Rachele. A dir la verita' avevo sentito Maurizio Crozza parlare di questo ma pensavo fosse uno scherzo. Il nome Benito non mi piace ma Rachele e' anche un bel nome e ora uno che fa se non e' di destra? Chiama una bimba Rachele e rinuncia al premio o se lo prende comunque, tanto e' tutto di guadagnato? Coi tempi che corrono 1500 euro fanno comodo.

Italian party to pay for babies named after Mussolini

ROME (Reuters) – An Italian right-wing party is offering 1,500 euros ($1,930) to parents who name their babies after wartime fascist dictator Benito Mussolini or his wife Rachele, saying their names are under threat.

The MSI-Fiamma Tricolore party, the descendant of Mussolini's fascist party, said the initiative in the poor, southern region of Basilicata was meant to keep alive names "at risk of extinction" and pay tribute to the movement's roots.

"Benito and Rachele are nice names and I hope our original initiative will get people going," party official Vincenzo Mancusi told Reuters.

The bonus -- intended to pay for baby clothes and food -- applies to babies born in 2009 in five villages where the birth rate is especially low, Mancusi said.

Mussolini ruled from 1922 to 1943 when he was ousted after leading Italy to ruin by entering World War Two as an ally of Germany. He was executed along with his mistress Claretta Petacci in 1945. His widow Rachele died in 1979.
