The tank. About extravagance and convoluted thinking

Abstract

A few months ago I went to a powerful time of my agricultural activism (the only one with whom some progress could be made and who had made expressions of appreciation) seeking in vain help for that national calamity that requires the invasion of land as a requirement to build social aid housing, (and some failures relating to a country that invests 6% of GDP educating its citizens and making them professionals who then do not find employment without employment the endorsement of 4-3)1 and, commenting on the permanent absence of an agricultural policy, told me that a tank of thought was needed; something for which I judge myself to be especially trained, although no one else shares my judgment, even within the agricultural movement.
I am sure that management did not fail because of disloyalty, but because here there is no way to recommend someone who has no a hoop or political affiliation, nor for what I have perfect suitability or perfect right, but the conversation at least led me to occupy my forced leisure-and that of my wife-in-entertainment to write something about the tanks of thought.
