Quote #10
By Atlantic City's standards, Michael Matthews' biggest sin wasn't that he stole, but that he was clumsy at doing it. Matthew was worse than corrupt—he was inept. (11.12)
To be honest, Atlantic City residents don't care very much about being manipulated as long as they get their cut. They understand that having a corrupt government comes with its fair share of benefits. But if you're not going to let them in on the con, you can best believe you won't earn their support.
