You know its a sad day for the economy when gangsters can't even get hired hustlers to peddle their drugs.

I knew the yakuza were open but I didn't know it was to the point of having fronts in the market. With that said, I can completely understand why they're 'laying off' their people. Anyone that has their hands in the markets will feel the pinch
