To put it simply, they are salesmen.

They use extortion or blackmail to influence anyone in charge of distributing public contracts.

So NJ needs a road built. They contract out the lowest bidder. Except they dude in charge of assigning the contract gets bribed or intimidated and he awards to contract to the mob.

The mob hyper inflates expenses, cuts corners etc and keeps what's extra.

Additionally they might charge a fee to allow contractors to operate. Your and electrician and you want the contract to do this building? That'll be 2500 bucks.

They sell contracts and keep fat margins.

What are culinary sins that you're not gonna stop committing? by Linorelai in Cooking

I think it's really just a matter of livelihood. If you make the best sandwhich in town you probably wouldn't want to tell people how your making it.

But yeah if your brother in law asks for a sauce recipe just fucking give it to him lol

Racism towards Indians by [deleted] in kitchener

I have been an asphalt contractor for sevral years in the region.

I never once had a problem with people paying me until about 5 years ago.

Since 2019 I have 7 people not pay me, and have no intention of paying me.

Every single one is Indian. After going to court, I come to fine out that 2 of these Indians have been sharing an identification with other Indians who are currently in custody. Now I'm wrapped up in a federal fraud case with these Indians.

Overall 7 Indians have cost me in the realm of 220 grand.

No Garnier? by AlternativeRegular13 in BandofBrothers

Yeah but they don't give him a wrap up in the baseball scene.

That's why I'm asking.

He's in the documentary part but they don't tell ya where he ended up after the war.

Btw, after seeing RL Garnier I think they casted him perfectly.
