No they don't. Eastern European drivers drive for the fraction of a cost than western european drivers do because they have less cost where they come from.

So all this shows is exactly the political nature of the judges uber ruling. It's all politics and claiming it's somehow justified as you did originally is simply not the case.

The judges just followed the law. So, their ruling is totally justified.

The law is, obviously, political in nature and decided through the Italian democratic institutions.

Really, I don't know what more to say.

No i am aware of that which is why you keep going back to it being a democratic institution. But thats not whats at question here. You tried to argue that the judges ruling was justified By isolating it to a legality thing, but then a lot of other companies should be shut down in itally. Foreign truckdriver companies from eastern europe, automated cars etc all on the basis that they are based on unfair competition. Its a politically motivated ruling too.
