Historically have Manhattan bosses, captains been more business oriented while Brooklyn bosses been more "blue collar"? I know these are sweeping generalizations and I don't believe one area is more "sophisticated" than the other. There's just more money in Manhattan, that's obvious, and I'm wondering if that made a difference in how the mobsters came up.


"...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
