In a recent article an anonymous writer called for a war. In this writer's opinion, there are too many gangsters in the world. A war would be ideal to solve that little problem.
Why does this writer view these gangsters as
a problem? The writer states that with so many gangsters, the legits will be the victim. I wonder how the writer came to that conclusion. How are legits the victim of this situation? It's a well known fact that almost all legits have odd jobs on the side aiding gangsters in their criminal activities, and they make a nice dollar out of it too. Think about it: would morts in your town be living in Penthouses and wearing purple velvet jackets if there wasn't a crime family around to provide them with some extra work? Perhaps the writer never wondered why all those bodies are shipped around the world from the city docks.
Perhaps the writer meant being the victim of aggravated crimes. This shouldn't be a problem: gangsters are the victim of crimes as often as legit people are, and if there's more gangsters, they will take the bulk of these aggs.
The writer also makes a statement that the crime lords are overregulating things. I disagree. I'm not 100% up to date on how other cities regulate their affairs, but in Tokyo everything seems to be taken care of pretty well. A city needs regulation, otherwise things would get out of control. Now if combined with a proper set of stimulation programs, the well-known incentives, the average legit citizen can make a pretty penny.
Crime families are a vital part of a city's economy. So much even, that the economy of a city with a family is referred to as a "fully developped economy," as opposed to for example a "post-reset economy," a situation where a city lacks the massive income from drug trade because a crime family has not yet been set up shortly after a reset.
We have 2 Godfathers working together to keep things runnings, and the world should be grateful for this balance of power. Cities can develop and prosper, and anyone causing chaos and disorder is dealt with quickly. It's been a long tme since I felt this safe walking around in this world of InJustice.
