that's correct. most beaches in Italy are privately held, with decades-long contracts

it's a huge scandal and yet very hard to solve because of the same dynamics of the bridge above: special interests, and hideous lobbying

[Teever]

I think a vicious PR campaign against the people doing the lobbying and the people being lobbied is a good first step in situations like this.

THe public should know the names and faces of the people involved and they should associate negative and petty emotions with them.

Most Canadians hve no clue about this bridge or the people like Moroun and his lawyers who are involved. These should be names that people spit on the ground when heard, there should be political cartoons and memes that satirize their faces everywhere. There should be boycotts against his businesses and the businesses of his lawyers and accountants.
