  1. Italy not very wealthy? Maybe the little Town you went to but not the entire country. Italy is an industrialized country and the number four richest among the G7 richest countries. The problem with Italy is that many politicians are incompetent. Italians not speaking Italian? You must understand that in Italy their local dialects are their first languages and that's true but everybody learns Italian from kindergarten to High School to college. So they know both the local dialects and the official Italian language. Now when confronted with Italians of other distant areas then they switch to Italian and the same as with foreigners but saying that Italians don't speak Italian is not correct. And the Italian language is not 40 year-old but has been there beginning in 1861. Before Italian in Italy they spoke Latin (Lingua Latina) which was the language of the Romans. People steal from you? Did you see the race or nationality of those people? They have many Gypsies and other non-Italians doing this stealing. The problem with you is that you are not from Italy and you don't know that much about Italy and it's culture and your brother is generalizing a lot. Go to a small Town in North Dakota or Maine or South Carolina and see how good you feel but your brother downgrades life in small Town in Italy for lack of retail stores. How can he compare life in small Towns with life in larger Cities? Same is in the United States. Small Towns in the States means lack of stores, opportunities and poverty. In the United States of America we have millions on Welfare, too many unemployed and homeless people, forgot about that? He got away away from remaining in Italy pass the 90 days? Very soon not anymore. In fact the European Union is in the process of establishing an entry and exit system to track travelers.
