Does the U.S. even have massive organized crime operations like those in those pop cultural depictions, anymore? Seems fewer than we used to.

Organized crime is more powerful and better organized right now than it has ever been in American history.

The reason people are unaware of this is that organized crime is really only visible when they are having problems. Gang wars lead to news coverage, one gang monopolizing an area and effectively extracting revenue from it does not.

Not that I know of. Mayhap I'm just ignorant of them?
