Mayor in Mercedes, people in horse-drawn carts

The mayor of the village of Hitrino (6,000 inhabitants) in the economically struggling region of north-eastern Bulgaria drives around in a Mercedes limousine worth 55,000 euros. He paid for the official car out of the municipal budget to make his fellow citizens happy, he told journalists. The socialist paper Duma lampoons the idea: "Of course the villagers are thrilled that their mayor can drive around in a luxury car even if they themselves can only afford a horse and cart. What do they care if that's all they have? Far more important to them is the joy they feel in their souls. What? The streets are full of potholes? There are no sewers, no schools, no retirement homes, no jobs? You have to rise above all that. Even if you can barely eke out a living, there is no real problem. Because despite all they lack, these people are blessed with true happiness."
