Cartel - Wikipedia

P.S. You're so dense, I'm done discussing this with you except to note that the Detroit Federation of Labor was a labor federation while the Wholesale Cleaners and Dyers Association was a compulsory cartel. Previously linked documents and videos identify a dozen participating businesses.

God, you're dumb as a stump. Darwin suggests that stupid people often don't survive to pass their genes down in adulthood. Please for the good of the species neuter yourself.

you clearly proved Darwin wrong.

You keep fixating on the business side of it with the cleaners.

They were looking for a way to use them as a front to legitimize money,you do not create a front and draw attention to your self by terrorizing the businesses.

Which is why they brought in Chicago and created the labor union,so they could use the workers as leverage,do this or they will strike.

I stand by my original post where the workers were forced under threats to join,because who would offer to join and pay monthly dues if they did not have to,it was not an option.

The mob used the unions to extort businesses ever since,not in workers rights but to increase contracts during construction,collecting a wage for no show jobs,buying houses and cars and never paying the loan even health insurance.

You went down a narrow path without the ability to zoom out and look at the bigger picture and that was your story and you were sticking to it,and everybody else is stupid.

The cleaner wars was them being thugs and reckless as a gang,the call to Chicago was them attempting to transform from a bunch of thugs into a mafia that could show income through the use of legitimate businesses so they could justify income.

It was a pivotal time for them,they could have matured but they kept acting like a bunch of reckless thugs and witnesses came forward and the speculation was that the competition helped set them up to law enforcement because they were out of control and needed to be out of the picture.

That’s why when Lucky came in all he had to do was pick up the pieces.

When it comes to the mob, Detroits mob existed because they ran a tight ship and did not run around with a neon sing saying here I am and draw attention.

Old school,the other NY families got stupid and chose the limelight where they ended up dying in prison.

The purple gangs downfall was their claim to fame,brutality,they did not need to be like that when 75% of the liquor was coming through Detroit,they could have been more powerful then Al Capone.

We see that even today,a thug is a thug it’s the only thing they know and even if they put a suit on or make it in society they just cannot leave that thug life behind.
