the constitution,it was a tactic that they were hoping would curve oc and people who were doing business with them,unions,grocery-stores,clothing
outlets,construction-it was to prevent heads of families becomming more powerfull by criminal activities,it also covered drugs and gambling, guilt by association was and is a huge part of this"law"and being around someone 5 times removed
from a crime can make you just as guilty or owning a company and receiving monies for services completed even though you thought nothing about it(i learned the hard way)makes you
a target by the feds.
