hell no they have no influance over the docks or any union work.. that ship stopped 20 years ago. even in NY if you are italian you are not allowed to work in the fish market.. THAT came on the news a few years ago.... everyone or my fault most NY guys knows that. Government stopped that stuff.. And i am not being a smartass toward you my man.. Maybe a NY guy could let us know more on that one.. But they do there own rehabbing of old houses. like i said before they hold real jobs. even rehabbing houses and real estate adventures you can only do so much.. and most of that shit is legit especially through the real estate. real estate has there own laws.. there is shit you can do and cant. you have to follow the rules over there of anyone can say they don't think something is right. i don't think you can do too much illegally activity, really no room for that in real estate. keller willams and long foster or whom ever, are all 99% legit.. there is a real estate school to become an agent. maybe when rehabbing houses they use cheap material or mexian labor.. and over price the place they are selling.. not really breaking the law there..... and if you are doing legit stuff are you gonna kick up.. yea right not over here im not...... they could of sold weed an coke an probably gotten away with it.. but the fentontyal or whatever the way it is killing young people .. the po po had to crack down an make arrest.. no way to make money any more with gambling being mostly legal and the pa casinos...
