The city administration has made public subsidies granted in 2008 for households with elderly dependents and / or children with disabilities: 88000 Euro in all divided into 110 families, mostly with actions "one-off" (as the hospitalization of 30 days in nursing homes or generic contributions for the summer) that will certainly lighten the difficulties but do not represent a real and lasting solution of the dramatic problems of these families. Would also be appreciated, if not in mind other expenses were recently endorsed by the local authority for much less priority issues: all the choices of the rails of the tramway decorate with plants that will cost a total of over one million euros per square meter and 58 €.
Going into the specifics of allocation of funds for long-term care, if we consider that the 37 families with frail elderly people have been charged an average of 246 Euro (9079 Euro divided by 37, precisely) in the form of direct assistance, means that such families have received from the municipality, on average the equivalent of costs incurred to 4.3 square meters of succulent plants. But the comparisons could waste: 88,000 Euro is a lower figure than the gross salary of only one year of a single leader of the municipality of Scandicci, 88,000 euros is a figure almost identical to what is spent by the city a few years ago for the purchase of 20 vessels with tree on which today adorn via Donizetti, 88,000 euros is a figure lower than spent the last schedule of summer events held in the city, € 88,000 is an amount lower than the total cost for the opening and the management of young so-called "Gingerzone" open for several years and then suddenly closed in the middle of this summer . From the press of the town we also learn that 11 families remain on the list without assistance: since unfortunately the mistakes of the past may not be correct, it at least has the good sense to integrate the fund for the long-term care, perhaps by cutting some spending less of a priority, making ensure that all families who have applied to obtain the subsidy. At a time of economic difficulty, it is all unthinkable to continue to spend money on public works in urban design, maybe nice but unnecessary, and then save on personal services, especially when it comes to the most vulnerable, such as families with dependent persons.
