\begin{proof}
\emph{Truthfulness.} The algorithm only describes the allocation rule.
-However, it suffices to prove that the mechanism is monotone, then
-Myerson's theorem (see TODO) ensures us that by paying each allocated
-user his threshold payment yields a truthful mechanism. The proof of
-the monotonicity has already been done in \cite{singer-influence} and
-is given here in lemma~\ref{lemma:monotone} below for the sake of
-completeness.

\emph{Budget feasibility.} Thanks to the analysis of the threshold
payment in \cite{chen}, the budget feasibility follows easily. The
