these gang members are worse off than their parents

psychological state4) Spur of moment - No rational thinking, under influence

Complexity of organization - Division of labor; not just 1 person doing deviance - could be a # of people; most have specific knowledge of organization, not very many have whole knowledge- better communication “accidents” against consumers, environement might have happened

Indirect link of organization - elites - ie. Ford Pinto case Iococca didn’t
tell them to build an unsafe car (- We’re talking about white collar
crime by big companies that they are ignorant of, or not really to blame for)

Direct Involvement - which means organizational elite knew and started the crime anyway
Organized Crime vs. Street Crime - more people are hurt at the same time in corporate crime
More serious than street crime
