we aren't even able to learn from our own mistakes

X:

hmm i don't know
i think that any system would have any way practical or human problem or both
and anyway i think that we are more likely to be like Italy
while i'd rather we become like Spain
 inVESTIR
how do you mean it? 
X:
Italy is like all the parties decided how to share the power
and they are exchanging the places
they are profiting from the country, and they are just exchanging the place to make people believe that they are in democracy
in Spain you can see some differences from one party to another 
inVESTIR
isn't it so everywhere? I mean in some point all parties are always negotiating 
X:
maybe because i see italy as big mafia country 
inVESTIR
oh, yes, but the mafia in Spain is also big
they don't appear with big guns
[…]
 X:
i didn't mean that one was evil and the other good
i meant it in terms of degrees of evil
it just seemed to me more democratic than Italy where even votes where easily bought inVESTIR
yes, it might be...
your great challenge is to learn from other's mistakes
 X:
we aren't even able to learn from our own mistakes
 inVESTIR
but it
is always easier to see the other's mistakes, don't you see?
Haha 
X:
hmm i think not
when i read sometimes french economy magazines
they always say look Sweden succeeded more than us, look Germany etc
though they don't see the problems of those countries
and they don't see how these countries have hidden their problems
