An earthquake reached Italy on this Twesday afternoon. This was a 5.8- magnitude earthquake and destroyed a large area in the northern of the country leaving 17 deaths. It was just 9 days after a 6.0 -magnitude earthquake that reached the same area and left 7 deaths. After this earthquake it seems that another 50 occurred at night. The northern of Italy is the main manufacturing industries `s areas and that is why this earthquake will impact seriously in the economy of the country. Many of the victims were factory workers. As a way of financing the recovery after the earthquake, the government implemented an extra tax of two cents to the gas`a price. The government also declared June 4 a day of mourning.
In my option, first of all, a region such as the northern Italy, which was reached by a disaster with deaths, should never allows the same to happen leaving more victims. The factory buildings should be prepared to avoid earthquakes and other kind of natural problems. This tragedy affects Italy in a moment of crisis, what makes things worse, since the country is not with a stablish economy and the earthquake reached a region of high economy importance. So this add of two cents in the gas`s price will not be enough and the government has to make the right decisions in order to preserve the safe of population and save the economy.
