The Lega Nord’s latest provocation is its proposal that state employees receive different salaries for the same job, depending on whether they live in the north or the south. Agriculture Minister Luca Zaia has gone so far as to argue that relating salaries to the cost of living in different regions will force the south to be self-sufficient and stop relying on help from the north.
北方联盟最近的挑衅是一项关于工资的提案：承担同样工作的国家公务员可以依据工作地点北方还是南方而领取不同的工资。农业部部长卢卡·扎伊亚甚至荒诞地辩称说将工资同公务员所在不同大区的生活成本挂钩将能够迫使意大利南部的人们自食其力，而不是总是想着依赖北方的帮助。
