- lbeltrame 6y agoThe Twitter thread seems to contradict this claim. > Seconda domanda: da cosa dipendono allora le lungaggini, se non dall’affidamento? La risposta è esattamente quella che state pensando: dalla burocrazia. "Second question: what is the cause of slowness, if not when a work is actually given [to whoever got the contract]? The answer is exactly what you're thinking about: bureaucracy." The next few tweets bring data which supports this.
