Are you saying criminal organisations never are (or at least start of) as 
voluntary ones?

Are you saying no voluntary organisations can ever be or become criminal?


Also, I never "equated civil society with mafia/government" (making such 
sweeping comparisons seems to be your job here). I said that even within civil 
society, if a given organisation has too much power, it might corrupt said 
organisation (or rather, people within it).

Might I offer an example:
