      Uh, yeah, so it turns out that 'It's A Wonderful Life', a movie where a man seriously contemplates suicide, may not be the delightful holiday romp we remember. https://bit.ly/32Ys7Hj  pic.twitter.com/TGKanSneSu

      The movie is about a cuck who tries ripping off a benevolent banker. Mr. Potter did nothing wrong.

      Potter's conduct, however mean-spirited, was socially defensible up until the point where he outright stole cash from Uncle Billy.

          As both the bank owner and a board member of the savings & loan, he failed his fiduciary responsibility twice for his own personal gain.

          I've always thought that Pottersville looked like it was a helluva lot more fun than Bedford Falls, but that just may be the recovering alcoholic in me.

          Also, the Hollywood studio system with Harry Cohn , however mean-spirited, was socially defensible for making the best movies ever while Capra Liberty Films and his career would go down within 3 years because it lost money on a feel good movie like It's A Wonderful Life.

          And Potterville was a small town that made the most free market economical decision to maximize the utility of its citizens. (In truth Potterville became Las Vegas.)
