>A report published in July 2015 by the Italian organization SVIMEZ shows that South Italy had a negative GDP growth in the last seven years and that from the year 2000 it has been growing half as much as Greece. It has been argued that South Italy might be the real Sick man of Europe.
When are terroni going to get their shit together, holy fuck. What's wrong with them.

Not an argument.
Haven't most productive south Italians been fleeing north for the last hundred years?
You need horizontal wealth transfers to make up for that inequality.

Your fault for sending it, you should have made the transfers without giving them the choice to divert the money which only deepens a recession, you should have invested it yourself and given them no choice but to get new roads and railways, energy production, etc.

I'd have a serious discussion about this with you, but I don't want to since we're in a bait thread

Maybe next time. But usually when you give a big lump of money to a country/region that is not developed most of it will go to the local elites and not to improve education and efficiency.
Case in point is also my country for example.
