What part did the mafia play in the Great Depression?

During the Great Depression, the mafia exploited the economic turmoil to expand their operations, engaging in illegal activities such as bootlegging, gambling, and loan sharking. They filled the void left by legitimate businesses struggling to survive, offering financial support to desperate individuals and communities. This allowed them to gain influence and power, as they provided jobs and services in areas where the government and economy had failed.
