We're not sure we're gonna have elections right away. There is a possibility an interim government will be formed with the only chore of changing the current electoral laws (implemented by the 61st government), which create thin and inconsistent majorities leading to what just happened (that is the fall of the government).
I'm truly happy this government finally fell since the only thing the majority parties seemed to be interested to do was raise the taxes (of course a big portion of that money wasn't used for the good of the country) and bring back sixty-year-old Communist laws and decrees "for the good of the people". The poor people that lived "five horrible years under evil center-right-capitalist rule".
I'm hoping something big happens, like a radical change in the form of government, from Parliamentary to Federal republic. But, of course, that will never happen, since we would be "too American" and "American is bad", not to mention the fact that the Southern regions would starve.
Dear Old World, you represent everything that's wrong...
