...world reads headlines such as MAFIA INC. ITALY'S LARGEST COMPANY, but none of the candidates for Prime Minister deem this worthy of mention. The Sicilian Mafia, 'Ndrangheta in Calabria and Camorra in my home region of Campania currently reign over one-third of Italy's territory, infiltrating entire sectors of the aboveboard economy - transportation, hospitals, construction, fashion, supermarkets, agriculture - like a cancer to which no part of the nation is immune...
