Default Re: AC: The Economics of Revolutions

I'll tell you ahead of time that the ACists will deny that mobs/syndicates/good fellas will ever exist in an AC society because the reasons for their existance will have been wiped out along with the state. They deal in black markets to fund themselves; and barring a black market of illegal goods to exploit, they will lack funding to do anything. Then the ACists will end with a derisive "What, are they going to be a mob of purse-snatchers?"

I don't know much about the mob's actions (despite my extremely Italian-sounding last name), so I don't have anything to add in the way of the validity of the above.

edit: damnit, boro got to it first
