Benefits of small mafias

There are a few benefits to having small mafias. Two of the three farmers that I would like to sell the rights to have tiny mafias. I keep them that way so that when they generate loot, I get it. They also can get progress in Las Vegas - without getting XP! This is VERY useful for energy characters: they can do jobs, then finish up by getting progress on the fighting jobs. They lose the fights, get no XP, get progress, so can finish with with the big Cleto job for uber XP and cash!
