Going to prison for mob business as usual is one thing, but because of a boss who's obsessed with celebrity? Gravano knew that at least in the case with his family, the mob was done. People like Gravano and Chiodo didn't desecrate the oath, psychopaths and prima donnas like Gaspipe and Gotti did.

"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country.
