Indeed - and Italy's Prime Minister made it very clear that they wouldn't step in. The vote, as I've already stated in a different thread, was clearly a tactic from those buffoons representing workers in order to put pressure on the government and, eventually, to play the victim's role. ~10 years ago AF was willing to take over together with all debts, this time, I'm afraid, alternatives are virtually non existent.
