Very true, as a Christian I have seen many believe they were following Christianity but were following some cult with a Christian mask on. Whatever you believe or are apart of you need to know what it truly is about or someone can easily trick you or lead you down a bad road as they are deceived themselves. For me that means studying the Bible and knowing all the parts that talk about certain topics to get a clear picture of the message instead of just one part that is twisted but people wouldn't know because they don't know the rest.

For as long as there is a black market, there will be organised crime. The Italian-American mafia is just one of many OC groups and one could argue that their power and influence has been exaggerated by film/television and the huge law enforcement effort to destroy them in NY and other places (Boston is a good example, where Whitey Bulger worked with the FBI to take out the Italian-American mob whilst getting a free pass to do the same things that they did). The Italian-American mafia is nowhere near as powerful as it used to be, largely because the kind of criminal activity that is profitable has changed and other organised crime groups have a monopoly on these activities. The best example would be drugs: the Italian-American mafia were once pivotal in bringing in heroin via the French Connection, back in Lucky Luciano's days, but the global trafficking routes have changed and different crime syndicates have formed and evolved to control the new routes and networks of distribution. One distinction is that organised crime is less structured around ethnic groups, although there are still organised groups that do organise themselves alongside ethnic lines, such as the Albanian Mafia, who control a large percentage of the cocaine coming into Europe from the import level, down to wholesale, retail and even street level in some places (London, for example). Then there are the mafia groups in Italy: the Sicilian Mafia, the Camorra, the N'drangheta (considered now by some to be the most powerful mafia group in Italy, who have heavily infiltrated Masonic lodges and have massive dealings with banks in London). But what you see is that these traditionally ethnically structured groups working with other groups, i.e. the Sicilian mafia working with Nigerian Crime syndicates in Sicily, the Albanian Mafia working with the Camorra etc. and the Mexican Cartels working with anyone who can make them money, such as gangs in Britain that are not structured along ethnic lines but, rather, are syndicates made up of connected criminals, bound by profit above all. This has always been the case, but globalisation has forced criminals to relax any xenophobic inclinations they may have had in the past. But back to the original point: for as long as there is a black market or for as long as there are ways to make money illegally, criminals will organise in order to make profit. Russian criminals that are tech-savvy steal $billions and are alleged to work with the Russian State. The same can be observed in many nations and I suspect that certain cyber criminals that work in the US may enjoy the protection of the security services if, for example, they supply information on other criminals, which many top criminals do (one myth that people should certainly forget about is the idea that criminals don’t snitch!). Those Russian hackers we hear so much about may be connected to Russian Mafia groups who also deal in drugs, guns, human beings and whatever else there is a market for but which is illegal to buy and sell. Gang A, from location X, will work with Gang B in location Y to move product 1 to location Z, in exchange for money which was stolen via cyber crime. In turn, Gang C who control location Z may sell product 2 to Gang A in order to supply location X. All of these criminal groups will be organised and may or may not be structured along ethnic lines - Gang A for example might be made up of a syndicate of criminals from a range of ethnicities, while Gang C may be made up exclusively of Italians, Albanians, Russians, Turks, Chinese, Brits or whatever else. It is incredibly complicated and the days in which the idea was that a small group of Italian Americans controlled all organised crime are certainly in the past and, moreover, our understanding or assumptions about this period of the history of criminality are quite naive. Films like Goodfellas have helped to create a romantic image that is massively misleading and exaggerated. Goodfellas in particular is a good example of this: Henry Hill was a low-level associate of a crew in an Italian-American mafia “Family” - he was a drug addict and was not high up the ladder at all, but the film portrays him as being a far more powerful and respected person than he actually was. Great film but very inaccurate which glorifies a person and his life which were not glorious at all. An honest portrayal of that man and his life and crimes would be a very ugly, sad and pathetic film. Organised crime has been around since there have been A) markets and B) laws which dictate what can and cannot be bought and sold within these markets. Organised crime will be around for as long as this is the case. The days of the Italian-American mafia, their "glory" and their reign are a tiny blip on the radar and the history, present and future of organised crime is far more complicated than assuming that a group of well-dressed Italian Americans in a couple of cities control the whole show. At least we got some great films and TV out of that particular organised crime group though, eh?

Well now I have to ask, any particular tales that you recall stood out?

@@CornPopWazABadDude lol nope

@@justincraig398 how does it go then?

@@episode1439 Today, many struggle just to make a "living wage". Traditional means of earning for mafiosi (extortion, numbers, slot/vending machines, etc.) has done nothing but decline in availability over the last decades. Because their codes often dictate what specific activities can or cannot be undertaken, it leaves members with a very narrow range, and that range is often high-risk/low-reward, such as robbery and swag sales. More regulation = less earnings for the mob. They are very, very slow to adapt to environmental changes, and the changes in recent years have been exceedingly difficult to deal with.

​@@episode1439You have a monthly fee defined by your capo (roughly 2 thousand 5 thousand bucks, stricter capos can go up to 10 thousand 15 thousand per month). The capos then deliver a monthly fee to the boss through middlemen. Since the underboss and consiglieri can also be considered capos, they don't require a tribute per se. It's a common misconception that every made guy is rich. Some associates and soldiers can be desperate to make the monthly tribute, and some live in poorer conditions. The capos though, live better lives than average and bosses are rich, though most don't flash it out

I thought either way a snitch would be killed, snitching would normally get someone killed in most cases.

Very Machiavellian

@@bluetie1058 sorry for the confusion. What I was trying to say is that this guy being interview names Pennisi left the mafia because another made member was sleeping with Pennisi’s wife behind his back which is a death sentence in cosa nostra. So instead of the guy coming clean (and getting killed by Cosa nostra ) , he made up a lie saying that Pennisi was a snitch so that he wouldn’t get killed for breaking mafia rules.

La Cosa Nostra is not what it was but the Italian Mob is still alive and well today. I suggest you look up Camorra(Neapolitan mob) and 'Ndrangheta(Calabrese mob). Gomorrah by Roberto Saviano is a great read. Roberto is a journalist that went deep undercover into the Camorra and exposed them. He is under witness protection of the Italian government. Heis considered a hero and the one that started the catalyst to push the Camorra out of Naples. There was a movie made but it was pretty bad. It was more like a collection of short films loosely based off stories in the book. The acting is...yeah. Also there is a more recent show, Gomorra on Sky Italia. It is an amazing depiction of how it still works. Great actors and great writing. I think there were a few seasons on Netflix. It is in Italian with subtitles but the subs are on point. Camorra have a presence in the US, mostly through legitimate businesses. They tend to keep under the radar in the US. I don't want to spoil it in case you want to read the book.

@@xxray88jlxx I agree. But the actual explanation of how "The Life" works was delivered in a very understandable and precise manner, without bragging or swaggering. From a purely educational standpoint--say, for someone who has no idea whatsoever what Cosa Nostra is about--an explanation like this will give them the utmost insight into The Life. There's a reason why "The Insider" interviewed him.

I agree. The ceremony which for example used to include during the 1970's when wearing side burns for men were all the rage again with Oooga horns blaring every time somebody got a trophy wife again during day light hours instead. A trophy wife to do all of the unpaid out in the open work for der boss man.

Just like with alcohol. Put the stuff in the stores behind the counter or have specialty stores. The stores can decide what they want sell or if they want to sell. The states and counties can regulate it as they see fit. You can expect to see a rise in other crimes (not that it is not happening now), however this would start to drop as police will have more resources from not having to deal with finding drug dealers and the added tax revenue. You would be solving problems in our country and also Mexico.

The mob has to change with the times. Mobsters need to be educated in order to infiltrate the area where the money really is. That being crypto and Tech sectors. You cant steal the money if you dont know how the game is played. There is more money out there than ever,the question is will the mob develope a modern gangster that has the necessary skills to be innovative and crafty enough to infiltrate sectors that havent been compromised. There are always new industries or niches that can yield big money. The question is will the the quality of mobster evolve to to a modern day earner. The life has to be truly believed in and the mafia has to be willing to invest in its future with education and innovation. Big part depends on whether current leadership has the brains or patience to realize the future needs to be invested in right now.

American Mob and italian mob differ in many ways, that should be obvious to you as someone who lived in both places.

If you listen to Sammy's podcast "our thing" he will tell you how and why he ended up with the lucchese and Toddo Aurello. Is 4 or 5 seasons of podcast and he's an exellent storyteller with alot of deeper knowledge of the mob since he had a key position with John Gotti and beforehand.

Sammy ended up with the Gambinos, he started with the Colombos. He got "traded" I guess you could say.​@kristoffernilsson6043

@@topteamvanderbilt4289 Florida has always been a mix of everything, even during the long reign of the Trafficante’s.

They bought the franchise... most neighborhoods in my city have a non-profit "Community development corporation" where a bunch of unelected bureaucrats decide whats best for "The Community" ... same idea, less efficient.

I was going to say the exact same thing but you said it a whole lot better. Thank you, Daren :o)

so many people say the same thing coming out. michael franzese has really cleared up any misconceptions people outside of The Life may have. glad he is ok too. will check out unlimited substance.

Hes a nut case and mentally unstable to even do this...

Yes John's channels are about his experiences in that life but also he speaks alot about positive messages in life I think they did him a favor by this laying on him. If you watch his podcasts you'll see how so many things influenced his decisions God interfered.

@@BWIL2515 I am well aware of the entire situation. God definitely interfered.

These guys are all losers
