Politics

Since March 2012 it has been illegal to die in Falciano del Massico. The current mayor, Giulio Cesare Fava, issued a legal decree stating "It is forbidden, with immediate effect, to all citizens resident in the municipality of Falciano del Massico, and to whoever passes by its territory, to cross the border of earthly life and to enter the afterlife." This decree was issued because the commune's cemetery is currently full and the deceased must be buried in the nearby town of Mondragone. Mondragone is currently in a long standing feud with Falciano del Massico, makes citizens pay significantly more for a cemetery plot there. The majority of residents in Falciano del Massico are retirees, and the mayor has requested that they "make every effort not to die until a new cemetery is built for the municipality." By the end of March 2012, two of the older residents had already "defied" the new law.
