Only a tiny fraction of billboards in France are recycled. Removed from their supports, some end up on farms, tossed over woodpiles or machinery. Others are burned, which, if not done properly, releases dioxins into...

In recent years, as commercial airline travel has become an ordeal, nothing has been more precious to them than the ability to catch a corporate jet when they wanted to, paying only a fraction of the real cost, out of either government funds or their campaign accounts. And of course, the companies were happy to oblige-almost always sending along a few of their lobbyists to keep the Congressman company and make sure his drink was fresh...
