At last an opportunity to buy a copy of Playboy on expenses! The December issue contains a fascinating interview with Teamster ex-boss Jimmy Hoff aand, assuming he really is dead, this is not only a rare interview with the press (of whom he was deeply suspicious) but also probably his last recorded view on life in the American political jungle.
He leaves no doubts about his view of Frank Fitzsin:unons, his successor as Teamster president, by whom he obviously considers he was double-crossed over getting Hoffa's release from jail.
Ducking and weaving, Hoffa slides indignantly out of every allegation of criminal activity and association with the Mafia, even denying that the US has such a thing as organised crime.
Most interesting, though, are Haifa's comments on the way he thinks unions ought to develop—notably in having national master contracts that expire simultaneously for all unions, so giving them enormous economic power in getting what they want, in the face of what Hotia sees as the united and heavily organised army of Big Business and its cartels.
There are pages and pages of Hoffa interview, and you don't have to look at the unclad females on the other pages!
