once again and in very short time, my hero, Jacopo did it again. the feeling of Bocca's writings is all there and the translation is very effective.

Superwork, how to fake that everything works

"Faso tuto mi" (I do all by myself). The frantic working of  super executive directors, like the one of a political party leader, is the introduction to a suffucating authoritarism. In the businesses of the masters "of doing", the flag rises when he is in the firm.
    The problem of the political and governing Berlusconi lies in the fact that he formed himself as an irreplaceable and provvidential business master.
In Canale 5 he worried about everything. Lights, clothing, of its scents and of its tastes; from the sacrilegious garlic to the ties with blue and white spots, or jogging at dawn driving a small platoon of board managers, visiting one of his villas in the Bermuda ( the course of History, yesterday it would have been the "Fascist Hierarchs" who jumped in the Circles of Fire, always on the run like Mussolini).
So, as soon as he got the power to govern, he made of the Italian Politics a continuous run, a frantic movement, a breakneck gamble:
today in Washington, tomorrow Corfu.., there to assure Obama his North Atlantic allegiance, here to give a little present to the Greek Karamanlis (a golden butterfly like the veline?); and then again aeroplane and then armoured car to meet the Russian President Medvedev, who cannot live one day without the precious suggestions of Silvio.
Always without showing a sense of nausea, or oppression, always between his body guards, who look so tall and funereal with their "offering their body to bullets".
    "Faso tuto mi", and at his image the whole staff tosses about, electrifies, it stretches out. But this frantic working is a drug, a way to fake that the administrative machine, the bureaucratic  machine, works.
    In the planned economies of the Communist Countries, they thought that production and distribution could work through Tolkac. Litterally the locomotives, the Superworkers always on the run, who by any means could avoid the slow bureaucracy and the planning errors, able to exchange  anything  for the benefit of the production site: you give me so many tons of bolts, I give you so many tons of tubes. And if they did receive goods which they did not need, they traded them.
 But with the Tolkac system, with the "faso tuto mi", the Economy of the USSR collapsed, and the Chinese one had to resolve back to the harshest capitalism to survive.
