I'll tell you a story.
The protagonists are the Bananas.
few months ago, just arrived in Australia, there was un enorme ciclone.
Una di quelle furie distruttive a cui i metereologi appioppano nomuncoli da scorreggia.
Tipo l'uragano Farty.
O la trombetta d'aria Fuffy.
In realta' qua i cicloni sono cose serie.
Vittime.
Case distrutte.
E intere regioni agricole rase al suolo.
A subire i danni piu' ingenti fu la regione tropicale.
Dove si coltivano le banane.
Appunto.
Il prezzo balzo' in poche settimane da 2 dollari e spiccioli al chilo a 12.
A volte adirittura 15 dollari per un mezzo casco.
Sui bancali dei supermercati a fianco delle banane venivano esposti cartelli.
A volte scritti a mano.
Con scritto sopra: "Scusateci per il prezzo delle banane, purtroppo il ciclone destroyed almost all 'of crops ".
So far nothing strange.
If not a bit of philanthropy in our region that is disappearing very slowly.
The strange thing' that Australians increased consumption of bananas in that period !
My dear economists may argue.
What jackasses these Australians.
Why 'do not import pounds of bananas from Chiquita' Ecuador?
Try to ask the same question to an Australian average.
The sciura Maria to speak.
We laugh in the face.
The priority 'and' protect its own economy.
Have a look on the board of an Australian.
thirty products, twenty-nine have written Made in Australia.
E non e' un caso.
Un signore di Margaret River, al supermercato, compra le uova prodotte a Margaret River.
E se lo guardi strano ti dice che e' un buon modo per sostenere la comunita'.
Un'altra cosa divertente.
In Australia c'e' questa cosa strana che a me fa impazzire, ma molte persone al solo odore vomitano.
E' la vegemite.
Un estratto di grano e lievito piu' nero della pece e piu' salato del mar morto.
Ma poco importa.
Se un Australiano ti chiede:"Ti piace la Vegemite?"
E tu rispondi:" Si, ma preferisco la Marmite (che e' la stessa cosa, ma prodotta in Nuova Zelanda)"
Ti fulmina con gli occhi.
Prima cosa e'.
Proteggere e sostenere il made in Australia.
Now.
A year ago I finished my master's degree in Bocconi.
Actually 'my master for' a few months earlier.
Long before the real end of the course.
Sweeping away the little that remains of an interest in something beautiful governed by greedy rats.

How can you have the courage to teach something like that to kids who are maybe in a few years behind the booths of companies and multinational command.
How can you say to a student.
Fuck your territory.
