History of ordinary bureaucracy in the private sector that makes life difficult and alienates talent

Vivaticket, down with Italy: the monopoly that undermines the attractiveness of the country

Finally Italy is growing! Forecasts for 2021 are revised upwards again: 4,5; 4,9; 5,3; 5,7; 5,9; 6,0; 6,3… Who offers more? Flash in the pan or redemption from the swampy cage of decline? The answer must certainly be sought in the policies of the Draghi-Franco government, committed belly to the ground to raise the country from a cruel fate. Keeping the pitfalls and ambushes of small parties at bay, a diminutive that fits both their size in Parliament and in the electorate and the greatness of their ideas if not their ideals.

However, the answer must be sought above all in the behavior of the private sector and civil society. Alongside tens of thousands of entrepreneurs and millions of workers who are fighting like lions in the arena of global competition, conquering and defending market segments for Made in Italy every day, there are blows inflicted on the country's attractiveness come on monopolists of turn who sleep on the soft and feathery pillows of the annuity.

An example? The visit to the exhibition Inferno at the Stables of the Quirinale. Try to change the time from the reservation made, which is mandatory on weekends and holidays. The Charon who answers, with great kindness, the phone of Vivaticket (monopolist of the sale) will tell you that you can't. But how, the site shows that there is ample availability at other times of the same day. Can not be done. But there are more than twenty-four hours to go, I'm freeing you the place for two other people who may be looking for the same time. Can not be done. So did I throw away the money? He can sell them to someone else, as they are not nominative…

We suggest to Minister Daniele Franco and to the Director General of the Treasury Alessandro Rivera to create a secondary market for tickets issued by Vivaticket alongside that of the most liquid sovereign bonds in the world. It is certainly simpler than removing the monopoly from this destroyer of the Bel Paese's image.
