people talk about the commission like it ruled the entire american mafia
they bullied the northeast families but that' about it
chicago and detroit were also on the commission and they pretty much had say over the midwest famlies or at least had a certain amount of influence over them, so between the northeast and the midwest, that was pretty much the entire american mafia that was under the control of the commission.
chicago didn't give a fuck about what was going on in ny
detroit's power was limited because chicago was in the way
chicago bullied the midwest/west....ny bullied the northeast
