First memory.
When I was 6 years, the TV was in black and white. The television was powered by a box, very heavy, I remember that it was called a stabilizer.
First I turned on the stabilizer, i waited a few minutes, then turned on the TV. The image took shape on TV, slowly and progressively.
When I turned off the television the image was still on the screen for a while, then faded to nothingness. Then remained a bright spot at the center of the screen, which then slowly faded.
So our current National (Italy) situation. On TV screen there is our image that fades slowly. TV is already turned off.
Second memory.
Captain Kirk was traveling on a ship, the Enterprise. The engines were warp-drive, driven by the exchange matter - antimatter (Matter Antimatter Reactor). The Wizard of the engines was the engineer Scott.
The exchange between matter and antimatter generated propulsive energy.
I have associated this memory with the National (Italy) situation.
The matter is the productive component of the Nation, antimatter is the structure of the state.
If the exchange is balanced and controlled, propulsive energy is generated.
If the exchange is not controlled, energy produced via exchange with matter generates a new type of antimatter, passive, which do not produce energy but absorbs it.
Since this type of exchange is produced less and less propulsive energy, the perceived effect is that the ship slows down.
The end of the process provides for the latch of the ship due to lack of propulsive energy: all the energy produced will be absorbed by antimatter passive, to maintain itself.
Mr. Scott ??
