Re: It does make it worse (none / 0)

It started, strangely enough, as a New Year's Eve game in Strasbourg (and it involved, at first, mostly stolen German cars), and it's become a lot more widespread in recent years. How much is linked to trafficking and how much is just casual violence is hard to tell. It's easy, it's spectacular, and it's happening a lot.

but you're right, it's not a sign of a fully healthy society.

In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes

tens of millions of people stand to see their lives ruined because the bureaucrats at the ECB don't understand introductory economics -- Dean Baker

yeap, but it's not either the sign of impending doom and catastrophe that seems to be the new story du jour.
