How prevalent is the Mob in NJ?

My brother lives in NJ, just outside NYC. He keeps telling me he's planning on opening a reatail wine and beer store. Sounds like an invitation for organized crime to come knocking. I know little more than I see on TV...how likely is it that Tony Soprano's crew might be a problem?

Heavily regulated, low margin business. I dont think there would be a problem. I would worry about the customers.

There is no such thing as the mob in NJ.

...if there were, they're the nicest bunch of people I ever met!

It seems the favorite hobby for the mob is to get involved in the state government. Hence, the real reason for McGreevey's resignation and the rounding up of his various henchmen.

Both parties in the state have various shady ties.

I've heard the Meadowlands, around the 5-yard line. Last week, Tiki Barber ran over him on his way to the end zone.
