Agreed, the Outfit is doomed. I do think the culture of corruption in Chicago that helped it flourish for a few decades in the 20th century will probably still be around, but the Capone mob is now on life support. Some of the fortunes it made will have legacies in the form of legit businesses and whatnot.
