There are a lot of differences - personally, I preferred it when the "mob" ran Vegas. The place was cleaner and there was less crime, just to name a couple of things. One needn't be a "connoisseur" to see that, and to feel the difference in one's safety when walking from a parking lot to a casino, or if straying off the beaten path. Many corporations have their own ways of robbing us, in some situations perhaps far more insidious and damaging than the methods used by the mob.
