I can see what you mean about it not being whiped out. I guess what I meant was more along the lines of being nothing anymore in the sense that all these younger dont have what it takes in the Omertà department, earning, and loyalty. I'm sure their are some potential up and coming young guys who are gonna be good earners. But selling oxycodone and marijuana is only gonna lead to problems and will be a short lived means of earning. Cause let's face it, all these young guys now a days idea of earning us selling drugs. These young guys do not have what it takes to infiltrate unions, extort money making businesses/people, etc. etc..

Unless they are being directed and mentored by old school guys who will show them how to make moves but I don't feel like theirs many of the old school guys left, and not only in Philly but NY, NJ, and MA too. The only Italian Crime Group in the US that I still see as passing the torch to a new era of young and smart guys is Chicago. I've said it before and ill say it again, Chicago has always and still pretty much does have their shit together. Except for a little hiccup in 2005 called The Family Secrets Trial.
