After the flood: Italy's Cinque Terre revisited
A year ago, a freak rainstorm hit the Cinque Terre, an idyllic string of five Italian Riviera towns. Within four hours, the region got 22 inches of rain — a third of an average year's total. While three of the towns went virtually undamaged, the other two — Monterosso and Vernazza — were devastated. Buried under nearly 10 feet of mud that slid down from the hillsides, the towns were left without water, electricity, or phone connections. It was a day residents will talk about for the rest of their lives.

Italy’s Anti-Labor ‘Sceccu-Bankster’ Government ...“The Fish Rots from the Head Down”
If a Gangster stops you on the street, puts a gun into your face and demands the money in your wallet; it is a crime punishable by imprisonment ... If, on the other hand, government officials pass pension ‘reform laws’, thereby taking pension money from your wallet and giving it to international ‘Banksters’; no crime is committed, no penalties accrue ...
