Decades of nice safe cooperation and suddenly everythings fucked and now we can’t trust eachother.

Its what happens when you let the mob run the country.

Nah. It happens when you let an idiot run things.

Mobsters are still organized businessmen. Just criminal ones. They’d do a much better job.

Mobsters will always try to gain and then enforce a monopoly with violence. They don’t want any competition. Mobsters want to control the price in high margin business.

Depending on how they operate, they will also scam people, sell low value real estate at high prices, etc. Being organized means they are much harder to catch.
