where did you see that was the reason he was demoted? (not saying your wrong, just curious)

I am from Chicago. My Uncle is a made man in the Outfit and has been for years. The Chicago Outfit is structured much differently than the 5 Families in New York. In Chicago, for example, there were 6 street crews that constituted the Outfit. For example, from about 1970 to 1986, the Street Crews were as follows. Cicero, Elmwood Park, Rush St., Grand Ave., 26thSt.,& Chicago Heights. The Top Boss of the Outfit was also the Boss of the Cicero Crew (Joey Auippa ), the Boss of the Elmwood Park Crew was the Underboss of the entire Outfit (Jack Cerone). The other 4 Crew Bosses were partners with the two Top Bosses. There were also some made men who were union or political specialists that reported direct to the Top Two Bosses. The Soldiers in the 6 Crews were NOT made men. They worked for the made men with specific jobs. The membership of the Outfit might have been about 240 men but the number of made men might have been about 60. In Chicago it was much more selective and much more difficult to be made, unlike New York where they make everybody. In Chicago, the Bosses of each Crew were equal to a Boss in New York. The made men in Chicago were equal to the Captains in New York. Chicago had their own Commission and had the final say in the midwest out to the West Coast. Chicago also controlled much of Las Vegas and had tremendous political power in their city of Chicago and all Cook County. The 5 New York Families combined were possibly more powerful than the Outfit, but the Outfit was more powerful than any of the New York Families individually. The Outfit also had more political and union power than any of the New York Families. Man per man, the Outfit was the strongest Mafia group in the United States according to F.B.I. reports and the White House reports. I would whole heartedly agree with them.The Oufit was also structured much better than the New York Groups who were always fighting or competing with each other. No Boss in the Chicago outfit ever was killed. The Only exception was Sam Giancana when he tried to make a comeback in 1974 after having been gone for 8 years. Each Boss, including the Top two bosses, have strong power bases and all work together in a structured partnership.

Posting such a statement is equivalent to a so-called "pissing-contest" or everyone measuring there penis!

My uncle is bigger than his uncle.

It's not my problem if the F.B.I. and the C.I.A. thought the penis of the Chicago Outfit was better organized and more powerful than any of the New York Families. If you have a problem with it, call the F.B.I. or the C.I.A. and argue with them whose penis was bigger.

From the 1930's forward, the Outfit has always been the strongest, best organized, most politically & union strong Mafia group in the country. Chicago basically told New York to get the fuck out of Las Vegas back in the late 1950's. New York has always been strong but is not cohesive like Chicago and makes too many soldiers who basically go out and do whatever they want to do as long as they pay some kind of tribute to their captain. in Chicago, the soldiers are not made guys but instead, they WORK for the made guys doing specific jobs. Much better organized than New York. There is a long, long list of rats in New York. In Chicago, there has only been ONE rat among the highly elite smaller core of made guys in 80 years. The Federal government has publicly stated in numerous reports, that the Chicago Outfit is the Strongest mafia group in the Country. Always has been. Not the Genovese's. If you don't like hearing it, go argue with the Feds about it.
