Never made it to Milan, but visited Firenza, Roma and Pisa.
The US Air Force had a microwave relay site there that was part of a Europe-spanning network. I was a maintainer there. This was before satellites took over. It's all gone, now. Only cement foundations left.
My wife and I loved Italia! We were newlyweds and we always said it was a great three and a half year honeymoon!

The baby-boomer politicians, with the infinite money-printer at their disposal, have successfully created an economic system where their generation can run up the debt infinitely and pass the tab of responsibility forward to future generations, where the bomb of reality will explode once they are long gone.
To make matters worse, Big Gov orgs have gradually brainwashed the boomers OUT of the idea of passing the wealth they've acquired from riding the money-printer to their children as inheritance, convincing them that they should give their wealth BACK to the government through what they call "charities" instead.
Ultimately, young people will be left with absolutely nothing, and an enormous mess to clean up on top of it all.
So yeah...if you're a young person who's angry at the older generations for failing you, you have every right to be.
As a "cusp" boomer (1962) I 100% agree with this statement. I believe in generational wealth and homesteading.
Greetings, nostr:nprofile1qqstplwhywdjuzvn7d7zcgcdu8f8eck0nlq594pa9v5wfau2qmc0l4qpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ezucmjduh8xmmrd9skcqgkwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qunfd4skctnwv46qz9nhwden5te0d9hxymmc9ehx7um5wgh8w6twv52uxesl. Was curious approximately where in Italy you live. I was stationed three in the mid-80s, in Mercogliano, near Avellino.
Just curious, if you don't want to say, it's cool.

On March 31, 1774, the British Parliament passed the Boston Port Act, the first of what were known as the Intolerable Acts against the American colonies. The measure sought to close the port until the residents of Boston paid for the tea that had been tossed in the harbor as part of the Boston Tea Party four months earlier. The colonies rallied around Boston, sending in supplies over land and further fueling the flames of independence.
"The die is now cast. The Colonies must either submit or triumph."
