Il ministero della Marina mercantile: atto di rinascita o epitaffio dello shipping nazionale?
Di tanto in tanto qualche politico propone di risuscitare il ministero della Marina mercantile, o - come Repetto - di crearne uno similare, per dare così voce ad un comparto che, evidentemente, altrimenti è afono, incapace di farsi sentire e ascoltare. Senza un dicastero - così sembra - lo shipping nazionale non è influente né rappresentato.
Sappiamo bene che una parte dei nostri lettori ritiene utile l'istituzione di un dipartimento governativo specifico per il settore marittimo. Siamo altrettanto consapevoli dell'apprezzamento generalmente riscosso dalle opinioni dei redattori e degli editorialisti che rispecchiano quelle di chi legge.
Oggi non occupiamo spazio per spiegare le diverse ragioni che ci inducono a scongiurare la rinascita di un dicastero con funzioni che in tutte le nazioni avanzate attualmente ricadono propriamente in quelle del ministero dei Trasporti. Ci sembra sufficiente rilevare che in un momento drammatico come quello attraversato da molte economie mondiali e, in particolare da quella italiana, sia inopportuno (meglio: irresponsabile) creare un nuovo ministero i cui incarichi, evidentemente, si incrocerebbero e sovrapporrebbero inevitabilmente con quelli del ministero dei Trasporti.
Non è necessario un ministero per indicare una rotta alla nave dell'economia italiana. È sufficiente una classe imprenditoriale che sia in grado di suggerire, affiancare, condizionare e, se necessario, frenare l'azione di un ministro, qualunque sia il ministero al quale appartiene.
Il ministero del mare non è la panacea che guarirà i mali dell'economia italiana, nemmeno di quella marittima. Graecia docet.
