But this extortion seems kinda amateurish considering they had the union for forever. Why not just ask for the trucking business, or rent the studio Thier equipment. There must be a thousand ways to coerce business your way, instead of just asking for traceable cash. Same thing got Blagojevich caught up. They don't seem that saavy. Actually, it could be a kind of generational arrogance, Chicago is so fuckin corrupt a lot of these guys don't seem to feel the need to even be that discreet...
