Sonny, The only future for the Italian American Mafia is to set it up somehow through strictly White Collar activity.
The way to do it would be to have like some kind of Parent Company (Dominent Crew) that would own a piece of many more companies. Each Company would be run by at least 2 other guys (made men) doing all different kinds of things like real estate, construction, garbage hauling, loan centers and other things connected to the City or suburbs where you can get big money contracts, pay no taxes and have very little risk of going to jail.
I think that's what Castellano from New York wanted to do. He was actually ahead of his time.
Gotti was the complete opposite.
Who knows, maybe that's exactly what DiFronzo has done and he's doing it on a much biggerer scale than we realize.

I can tell you honestly. I have never seen the Outfit so divided in my life.

The Southern Group wants it to be like the 1970's again. The Northern Group doesn't want to have anything to do with the 1970's ever again. It's very interesting to observe it.

There is no future in Bookmaking, Poker machines and Loan sharking in my opinion. None whatsoever.

There will always (as long as gambling is outlawed) be a place for bookies and hence Shy's.

But youre right about percentages. Thats a fixture, but will only be a minority portion.

Throw some extortion in regards porn, the odd feast and thats pretty much the blue collar quota.

So overall you're right. With a few tweaks
