29. Not if your livelihood resembles organized crime.

If the mob takes over a community and forces those in the community to do only to business with the mob then that's obviously wrong. If the mob loses it's livelihood because their crime family gets busted up we don't object.

To some degree those in industries that are protected by trade barriers are holding the rest of the nation hostage in the same way.
