i have to agree with bigfella to consider how successful how low key they are like the way it was planned to be since prohibition the least turncoats out every family besides they are really rich ...to think they dont have their hands in the big three gm chrysler and ford your crazy to think they didnt have something to do with papa gino dominoes pizza hut all being originated in detroit and michigan period your crazy and the factory's like general mills post kelloggs all has the mob written all over it and then the teamsters casino's its easy to see because no one got indicted for those extortion or loan sharking and one didnt rast them out just proves how tight they keep their business and family in tact all together to think of a city close to a million in residents alone with all those fortune 500 compaqnies and how strong they was and still are is not capable bacause the size of the family is not 100 like it was is stupidity and ignorant thinking..the reason they down sized and didnt mind to inducting new people after old ones passed away was probably they knew they way things was going as development in life and law enforcement it was prone to get more attention and scrutiny from the feds with 100 members then stay away.... same reason why they kept the inheritance of families within to make it strong within the family by blood loyalty and togetherness rather than size of numbers just makes the whole business in general easier for someone in the outside world or the law to gain accssess to the information rather keeping within the FAMILY like it suppossed to be ...By far in my opinion is the detroit mob not only smarter but in better position to keep the family going another 50 years running like a machine with interference compared to my city of boston or ny five families chicago or philly we can debate all we want the fact is history proves it itself and so do the facts and that no one can change for nothing
