you bet and the Mafia disappeared when the prohibition on alcohol was lifted. Get real. Criminal activity will continue and it is brutal in a way that few Americans understand
The Mafia’s grip weakened at the end of the prohibition period compared to what it had been during that period, although the prohibition period let them get their tentacles into things they wouldn’t have otherwise. Getting real means looking at truth even if it contradicts your previous beliefs.
Good point. The Mafia was fortunate that the government left them other prohibited substances that there was a demand for so they could maintain their income.
