Italy and how bad it is at going forward
Good day people of the world. Today I wanted to talk about my country, Italy, and how bad it is at going forward, at get modern let's say. So one would think that since we have all of these famous inventors and geniuses, and that we were romans we should be one of the most advanced state in the world but it really isn't that way, neither in a schintific way nor a cultural way. For the first one the biggest problem aren't italians because we are pretty smart people, but after university we all go in other countries to work cause here we gain as much as a simple worker or even less so yeah that's a shame. The second one is more interesting and complicated, for example we here have a big problem about homsexuals and transexuals because of various reasons. Some young people like me are totally fine with them but the rest aren't, we have this old mentality that isn't really good at all for obvious reasons. I dare to say that maybe it has to do with the fact that we have the Pope and we all love the Pope, me too but the church isn't really the best at accepting homosexuals you know. For example the adults here are usually pretty religious and when the Pope says something, well the listen to him. That's not bad, the Pope often says good things just not always and that is a shame too. I wonder if Italy will ever change, we live in an era really confused especially here, the people have no hope... many even suicide for how hard it has become to live here and what we really need, a good government that changes stuff, doesn't exist and probably never will. I ask you how is your country in these two things and how hard is living there? I'm curious to know, thanks :)

Italy and the difficulties it faces going forward
Good day, everyone. Today I wanted to talk about my country, Italy, and the challenges it faces adopting a more modern approach to today's challenges. So one would think that since our many historic contributions include famous inventors and geniuses, and one of the most ancient civilizations, the Roman empire, we should be one of the most advanced states {It has to be plural because you said "one of the" which means the noun that follows is plural} in the world, but it really isn't that way, neither in the fields of science or culture. For the first one the biggest problem isn't {you have to use the singular verb form because the subject, "problem" is singular} Italians {nationalities are capitalized in English} because we are pretty smart people, but after university we all go in to other countries to work because here {clarify where, "in Italy"} we gain earn as much as a simple worker, or even less so yeah that's a shame. The second one is more interesting and complicated, {Probably should end the sentence here with a period, and put the remainder in a new sentence} for example we here have a big problem about homsexuals homosexuals and transexuals transsexuals because of for various reasons. Some young people like me are totally fine with them, but the rest aren't, w. We have this old mentality that isn't really good at all for obvious reasons. I dare to say that maybe it has to do with the fact that we have the Pope and we all love the Pope, me too, but the church isn't really the best at accepting homosexuals you know. For example the adults here are usually pretty religious and when the Pope says something, well they listen to him. That's not bad; the Pope often says good things. However that's not always so, and that is a shame too. I wonder if Italy will ever change. We live in an era when people are really confused especially here, the people have no hope... many even commit suicide for because of how hard it has become to live here and what we really need is a good government that changes stuff. But such a government doesn't exist and probably never will. I ask you how is your country in these two things and how hard is living there? I'm curious to know, thanks :)0

I tried to erase my earlier comment but couldn't. I realize I should not have put my own opinion in here.

As an American...my comment is to Peg. This forum and essay is in a judgement free zone. You should not be making comments about what he has written. This is to correct his English as he expresses his views. He is writing about a specific topic in Italy and he sees it as a younger person would see it. Because we have varying opinions in the US and this is a heated topic with some of us, what is it to YOU if he expresses the viewpoint in his essay? And....he ever said it was the most important thing in the world today...he was speaking about his concerns about the traditional way that some Italians look at their current situation. Gionatan, obviously Peg doesn't know what the purpose of Italki is.....my apologies.....
