The thing that strikes me is that the Mob is not much different from 'legal' business when you get down to basics. <br /><br />There are some really ruthless and downright evil people involved with the Mob. Ditto for the corporate world. Their tools may be different though! The driving goal for those in criminal activities seems to be going for that next hussle. Find that next $. Again, not real different. The last thing is that the Mob corrupts. The corrupt is subtle and deep. It is only through this corruption that the Mob continues to exist. Do levels of corruption exist in the corporate world? Ahhh... that is the question for all of us to ask ourselves.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=kokopelle&ditemid=412317" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://kokopelle.dreamwidth.org/412317.html business mob contemplative public 0
