What's really weird though is that although the bookmaking in itself is really just un-taxed money which the government hates, but I can see why the Loan sharking and Extortion becomes a problem as the three do go hand in hand perfectly. Lets face it, in this day and age, people may get roughed up a little, but never killed over debt. I remember I watched a documentary on Mad Sam Destefano, now he was one crazy Loan Shark! Surely that kind of stuff doesn't happen anymore, because if it does, then I can see why the FBI do crack down on it.

Also like I said, these are small crimes that the government hates just because the money is tax free, but doesn't this kind of money move on to bigger crimes like Narcotics and other forms of criminality??
