It's weird that people actually want to believe a certain criminal organization still exists. That is a strange fascination. There's a lot of great things from the past to wish for. Civility among adults. Job security. A solvent pension system. But there are some people who are like, "I want a couple of guys with faces made of rubber in fedora hats to walk into my business and demand 10% each week!"


"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
