*Nods* There was a bit in the book Freakonomics, a chapter entitled "Why do drug dealers still live with their moms?' about how the drug gangs are run like corporations -- they compared it to McDonald's, in fact. The ones at the top make obscene amounts of money, but the drug dealers out on the street don't make enough to live off of, let alone live high on the hog. It's a fascinating book that explores how economics effects everything and isn't dry reading at all.
