Yeah no the fascists don't have anything to do with this, or better, they're just the last of a list of legislatures going back to the 90s who kept cutting the public services' budgets, with a big upturn after the 2008 subprime crisis.

No we haven't lost unemployment pay, they removed, for better or for worse, what the previous government instituted and labelled as "universal basic income", which in the end took the form of a more generous unemployment pay, but we still have the standard one.

The truth is there's actually very little difference between "left" and "right" governments nowadays: 10 years ago Renzi, with an allegedly left-wing government, actuated the biggest removal of workers right in recent history... They're all rich kids anyway, all they care about is taking more and more money from the general populace.
