经济学家杨帆指出:中国不仅有了黑社会,而且正在产生一种危险的“黑色经济”。 “这种经济势力所从事的经营活动,都是法律禁止做的,这是它与灰色经济最大的不同,后者既谈不上合法,也不违法。这种经济势力的最大特点是诉诸暴力,直接或间接的暴力,这又是它与诈骗的不同,后者多半是笑里藏刀,绵里藏针。这种经济势力往往是有组织的,内部有严密的分工合作,但又不像土匪.土匪一个两个、三五成群,未必有什么施暴纲领。最重要的是,这种经济势力要的是暴利,小买卖他们不干。为了暴利,他们可以不择手段。” Yang Fan, an economist, pointed out: Not only does China have a triad but it is also creating a dangerous “black economy.” "The economic activities carried out by such economic forces are all prohibited by law, and this is the greatest difference between them and the gray economy, which is neither valid nor illegal. The most prominent feature of this economic power is resorting to Violence, direct or indirect violence, which in turn is the difference between it and fraud, most of which are hidden in the face of laughter, hidden in the air.This economic forces are often organized, there are strict internal division of labor cooperation, but not as bandits .A bandit Two or three or five large groups may not necessarily have any program of violence and, most importantly, such economic forces will have to make huge profits and they will not do any business.
