Taxi drivers are a lobby, like notaries.

There is nothing worth defending.

Signing a document at a notary can cost 1,000 and for no reason. In the States the same thing gets done for 50 by a notary (I can talk about that).

These are imposed monopolies. They must end. You will damage a few hundred thousand people for a few years, but 60 million (in case of Italy) would gain immensely, as well as future generations.
