An argument could be made that Mafias tend to treat their communities better than Governments do.
The mafia doesn't hide the truth for the most part. They flat out tell you what's up! The government pretends to be your daddy and promise to keep you safe too, but bombards you with endless lies, red tape, cradle to grave control, etc....
I guess there is not much difference other than, with the mafia, you know the drill. You know who's who and what is what. YOu may not like it, you may not be able to do anything about it, but at least, you aren't being fed a bunch of endless lies and social programming. Or at least, I think. Since I have never had the privilege of trying out a mafia government over an illusionary 'elected/selected' one. I honestly think that I would prefer a mafia over a banker controlled man behind the curtain cradle to grave subconscious neurolinguistic programming all encompassing 'Government'!
MODERN = BAD
ANCIENT = GOOD

"Progress"

PROGRESS = SLAVE TO INDUSTRIAL POWER
NLP FTW!
