Smaller Leaner Well Organized Secretive Politically Insulated White Collar Organized Crime Group like the Outfit led by Elmwood park will always outlast a Blue Collar Disorganized Rat Infested Organized Crime Group like the Colombos or the Gambinos anyday. I don't care how many 'Made members' they have presently. The number of made members DOES NOT MEAN STRENGTH. BIGGER DOESN'T MEAN BETTER. If that were the case, then the Crips Street Gang in Los Angeles would be more powerful than ALL THE MAFIA FAMILIES PUT TOGETHER, WHICH OBVIOUSLY IS NOT THE TRUTH. The only Group in New York similar to Chicago would be the Genovese Family. They are the EXCEPTION, not the norm in New York. That's why Chicago only dealt with them. The Goal for the Italian American Mafia to survive from 2013 forward is to become smaller, more selective, and a lot more White Collar than Blue Collar. That is the ONLY way to survive. The number of made members, in the long run, really doesn't mean shit and does not represent strength. Again, if that were the case, then everyone in this Country would be working for the Crips or the Bloods.
