I'm telling you, they should've never unified.
Don't say that stuff around me. I hate that. 
What good has come of it? They're obviously dysfunctional. The government in Napoli can't even get the garbage picked up.
The garbage has been picked up. It was awesome. When I was there this past summer, my tour guide and bus driver were obviously Roman Socialists. They would huddle around the TV at dinner and listen carefully when Walter Veltroni would start speaking. When we were arriving in Naples, we were warned of the trash. We looked around and the streets were fine. My tour guide was shocked, saying that it wasn't only clean but was the cleanest that she's seen it in years.
The government might be a bit dysfunctional but it's fun to watch.
Too many of the independent states wouldn't be able to survive on their own if they split up. A unified boot was the best way to go.
