If this place isn't a money laundering operation, I don't know what is.

Sammy screamed 'Don't call the police'. This was one of the only things he really stood up to his wife on. I think Sammy is involved in serious criminal shit and he doesn't want Johnny Law to come poking around and causing any disruptions to the money losing business here. I’m not sure if the fact that they don’t trust anyone else to run the place has anything to do with that, or whether they’re just nuts. If they were smarter, I feel like they could let it run itself. See point #4 for a possible reason for that.

The place is clearly hemorrhaging money. All those fresh veggies come at a huge premium in Arizona and no one is buying them since no one eats there. This is a tactic to inflate food costs and make the on-the-books profits (from crime) a bit more believable. You have high prices and ‘quality ingredients’ and on its face, it looks like a classy place dealing in high-quality, high-margin food that’s doing very, very well. In reality, they’re buying top-dollar with dirty money and selling nothing.

Putting all of that money into the facilities, kitchen equipment and the dining area is a way to build tangible equity in a property, paid for by dirty money, of course. This is similar to how house flipping has become the new Las Vegas for cleaning dirty money. Even if you put 100k of criminal money into a house and sell it for 80k, you still made 80k in clean money (and the write off for the business loss – more clean money).

And what you ask is Sammi’s other ‘legitimate’ business enterprise? Custom home building. Same ****ing principle: Build equity in something tangible with dirty money, sell it (at a loss or profit, who gives a ****) and money comes clean out the other side.

The compensation structure for servers is just another money cleaning tactic. The money from tips never hits the books. It’s pocketed immediately and spent on gas, food, clothes etc. All the sorts of stuff that is bought in a day that isn’t traced and is used up (burned, eaten, thrown out etc.) when it’s done.

You keep the clean, un-traceable cash coming in (tips), and then pay out more money in wages to lose money so that the money that comes in from crime doesn’t make the place look TOO profitable. If they weren’t so wretched and money hungry they would just let the girls work on tips like most people, but they’re so narcissistic, deluded and downright evil that they think they’re entitled to it and don’t know when to stop.

They are mean to people because well, they’re nuts, but also because Sammy doesn’t actually give much of a **** if many people come in or not. If a few quiet, agreeable customers come in and eat, so be it. For Sammy, this place is an annoyance. He hates being there and knows it’s a waste of his legitimate criminal time to have to deal with it.

He was just stupid and married a crazy ‘trophy wife’ who thinks she can cook and the less he has to do in a day in terms of dealing with angry customers, the better. Hell, he might have married her BECAUSE he thought she was stupid enough to believe she’s making money when no one comes in. To me that’s why a lot of that bad food is just thrown away; otherwise she gets crazy and causes more disruptions to the fence.

Ever wonder why he doesn’t know how to use the POS system, but insists on using it? Because one day one of those girls is going to see ALL of these tables and checks listed on there that never actually came in, and then she’ll ask why. Since she knows more about the system than he, she won’t buy the lie he tells her. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s a small part of the reason for the staff turnover: They don’t want anyone knowing too much.

Because the thing is, at the end of the day, he can just make up checks and bills and act like all these customers came in and paid them lots of money for food, but just as long as the place isn’t completely empty all the time and then reporting big profits, there shouldn’t be any huge red flags so as long as the taxes keep coming into the IRS and the place keeps a quiet reputation.

But SOMEBODY just had to call Ramsey and blow the whole cover….

That place is about two blocks from my house and a friend told me just last night that they have a sign on the door telling people if they're coming there just to give them grief, just to stay out...so I guess they're already paying for the exposure the show got them. I may have to drive by and see how the business is doing...

The sad thing is now they have another crutch to lean on when a legitimate complaint comes up - "OH YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE REDDITERS "

I see some lawsuits in the future

Do these people have no family or friends? How could you not tell your sister she might need to slow her roll a little bit. lol. These people are apparently so crazy that they have no family/friends or those people are terrified to let them know the truth.

I laughed at the male ex-employee who said Samy was the unhappiest person he'd ever met. Never saw him having a good day!

No shit, did you not meet his wife? He's too old to divorce the crazy bitch. She'd drag it out until he was dead. MURDER-SUICIDE. It's the only hope

It could also be why they're closed whenever either one of them aren't working.

Damn dude....never really consider this angle, but you just might be on to something here...

I have to admit, I have never seen the show until the night this aired and I happened to see it completely by accident. I can not recall a time in my life when I sat in my family room, watching the television, with my mouth hung open (stupefied) with my sandwich in my hand - for a solid 26 minutes.

When the second commercial break came, I looked at my Wife and said - "This is the craziest sh*t I have ever seen...." She had the same, stunned look on her mug as well.....

If it was a money laundering scam, why would they want to be on National T.V?
