Thank you for your participation and interest in the Mises Community. This software platform has seen its day, however, and so is now closed. We are redoing our entire site, so look for some exciting developments by the end of the year. Thank you for your support of Austrian economics, liberty, and peace.

Someone mentioned that mafias do a lot of charity work. I looked up "charity mafia" but only got this relevant result:

Got any others? I'm unsure about the motivations behind their actions, but hey, the profit motive is valid. As long as they don't hurt others. Their main sources of income, though, don't seem thaaat bad (relative to what the government does, lol).

Disclaimer: I don't support mafias.
