What rackets is the Mafia into these days? What rackets bring in the big bucks? And please, I'm well aware that the mob isn't what it once was. That's not what this post is about, tired of the same rhetoric over and over.

Well I know Chris Chierchio recently went down for that multimillion dollar lottery ripoff, and Tom Farese was busted in that $30 million healthcare fraud case. These are the type of scores I like to see.

I question whether or not the mob has been kicked out of the unions as much as people claim. Unions are still to this day rife with corruption and embezzlement. They're just too corruptible for the mob to stay away.

They're not completely gone from the unions but they're not pillaging the Teamsters' pension fund anymore. Same thing as their presence on the docks. They've been greatly reduced but not completely eradicated.

I would think a smart racket would be scamming old ladies with extortion over the phone getting them to pay for something they don't owe. They are easily manipulated and naive.
Provides laughs all the way to the bank. If I'm running a racket its one of the easiest to make a quick buck.
