When it comes to the P2 lodge, is it true that they control and our more powerful than the mafia? If that’s the case, then wouldn’t that devalue the overall status of being named a “boss†in a mafia family?
They are/were more powerful than the mafia , but they are not mafia , so they can't be mafia boss. Its an ultimate goal for most mafiosi , to become "legal" businessman and still maintain connections to powerful people from mafia. Members of masonic lodges almost never go to prison.
