-how do mafia structures gain/sustain most of their power?
--often by bribing government agents to stay out of their way
--often they are also in cooperation with government agencies
--by not existing in a free market for security, where they would have to survive against !competing! armed security businesses,
---which would be impossible to survive against, because people would be able to spend way more sats on security than now with all the money going to waste via taxation
I can recommend books like "Everyday Anarchy" by Stefan Molyneux, or "The Order of Freedom" by Oliver Janich. They go very deep on the free market dynamics of security, insurance and law in the absence of government.
