Why Italy will Lose the 2030s

Italy is running out of time. Without drastic reforms, the 2030s could mark a turning point from which the country may never recover. With a shrinking workforce, unsustainable debt, and an economy that never recovered from the 2008 financial crisis, the country is approaching a breaking point. This video examines the harsh realities that could make Italy the biggest crisis in Europe’s future. ○ The Pension Crisis – An aging population and an unsustainable welfare system threaten economic collapse. ○ Economic Stagnation – Italy's economy remains smaller than it was before the financial crisis, with no path to recovery. ○ Debt and Instability – A debt-to-GDP ratio of 150 percent, the second highest in the European Union, limits any chance of financial stability. ○ Geopolitical Weakness – Italy's military capabilities and strategic influence are deteriorating as global tensions rise. ○ The Shadow Economy – Widespread tax evasion and organized crime further undermine economic growth and state revenue.
