October 11, 2007 (LPAC)--The head of the "Global Plunge Protection Team," Italian Central Bank Director Mario Draghi, zeroed in on the Italian government budget plan yesterday, indicating that the Goldman Sachs centered oligarchical "ship of fools" has put their former collaborator, Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi, on their list of victims to be "caymanized".

Draghi, a former Goldman Sachs executive and chairman of the International Financial Stability Forum, said in front of a Parliamentary committee that the government should have used tax revenue surpluses to balance the debt, instead of redistributing it to families. Earlier, similar statements had been issued by European Union chairman Manuel Barroso on Oct. 9.

Draghi was rebuked today by Alfonso Gianni, Deputy Minister for Productive Activities, who accused Draghi of being "an element of destabilization of the government choices". Writing in the daily Liberazione, Gianni connected Draghi's attacks to the new program of the Italian Democratic Party, which, "is born under the mark of the total support of the Maastricht guidelines, or rather a radical implementation of those guidelines in a forced march." Gianni defended the government plan, although he said it is insufficient, because it postponed a real recovery plan made of "innovative public interventions in strategic economic sectors."

The Draghi-Democratic Party front, Gianni wrote, is now jeopardizing this effort.
