In the sopranos, a line I remember is from when Tony is giving his guys shit for not kicking up enough money
"Certain portions of the economy are traditionally recession proof. Certain aspects of the entertainment industry(prostitution is visually implied) and our thing"
our thing refers to general mafia type crimes. Predatory behaviour that takes from the weak, greedy and stupid, and therefore doesn't slow much during a recession.
In short, you can sell your ass, or prey on others
I’m lubing up as I speak, boys.
All wealth is derived from humans.
This is why elites seek to own us through ideologies like fascism or communism.
And by owning our currency they also own a portion of us.
Mafia actions are just crimes that average people know to be theft.
Interesting
This is assuming you want to profit from the collapse of course. That is come out ahead, relative to others .
If I felt that I could turn a profit, or at least create a zero sum loss, I would prefer to suggest that helping others, to be a real good way to profit, in terms of keeping the community as a whole solvent and fedd, and therefore the economy and country as a whole.
My man!
