The days go by

Huh? The days follow one another and are all the same? Well… it seems so, alas?

Always this gloomy atmosphere, this bad news… this economy that still isn’t taking off, this poverty that’s close to 100%…

Since I’m a mechanics buff, it’s a bit like those cars that you push in a “counterattack” to try to get them to start.

… you push, you push, and you push again, you’re in second gear, ignition on, you release the clutch… and no, it won’t start. You try again… indrisy, nothing, not the slightest fart from the exhaust.

And this despite having repainted it and put on alloy wheels? 🤣

Lifting the hood, we better understand the extent of the damage: there are no spark plugs, no wiring harnesses, no coil… the fuel pump is dead, and looking at the tank, there isn’t a single drop of gasoline left in it. The battery is dying too.

All the problems are identified… but we continue the counterattack again and again… hoping it starts.

You can take my word for it: as it is, it won’t start. For it to start, you need air, fuel, and ignition (electricity).

The similarities with the economy end there. While you could potentially repair this car in a few hours/days, to restart the economic machine, it would take, what… a minimum of a decade? Or even a century?

Gemini, how long does it take to go from the Middle Ages to the industrial era?

Answer: 300 years

Some people thought they could do it in 5 years… Indrisy, in 16 years, you haven’t done anything at all, yes 🤣 Just a few things here and there to make people believe you’ve been working, but in fact… nothing?

Nothing was repaired on the rotten old car. On the contrary, all the parts disappeared one by one, over time.

So you thought that by repainting and putting on some eye-catching alloy wheels, it would start up again like a glove?

Indrisy, io izy io. All that’s left is an old carcass that has as much chance of starting up again as I have of becoming Pope one day 🤣

And you’re so obtuse and stubborn that you think you’re the best and everyone else is just a bunch of morons. When in reality… the results speak for themselves.

In reality, and I know what I’m talking about, even the most rotten car can always rise from the ashes. By methodically tackling the problems, one after the other.

Starting with the engine, of course, we take everything apart and rebuild it. Then the ignition and fuel system.

Phew, the engine starts? That’s the main thing. We tackle the running gear and the brakes. And we tackle the bodywork, the interior, and finish with the final accessories.

And all this while knowing how to surround ourselves with the best craftsmen in their field, and not by pretending to know everything about everything, and better than everyone else.

And there you have it, you can finally declare that Mandroso is finally your vam 🤣
