The collapse of the Genoa Bridge has lead to at least thirty eight deaths. supposedly the idea of believing the bridge collapsed because of spending rules already in use by the government is a popular belief. I also read an article (second link) on how the gov't knew of the danger the bridge was already in. I wanted to know your opinion on the matter.

Damn...

Woah, that’s sad and scary...

I don't know why I find this so funny.

For those that haven't followed up on this story. Anna Sergi a criminologist said that the influence of Italy's mafia should be looked at when considering the collapse. link to article below.

>>5 This almost seems like a Film Noir. The mafia has such a tight grip on the city that it even controls its infrastructure striking fear into those that know of the dark secrets of Italy's underbelly. I know this isn't news,but I just wanted to throw that out there.

Hey, it's cool!

Wow Nice
