Recensione in evidenza
It's A Crime Does Not Pay Subject from MGM. The premise is that small crimes lead to greater crimes. In the short, Johnson scoffs at the $26k rat-proofing ordinance and uses a $2500 bribe to get around the order. Soon, rats over-run the docks which leads to an outbreak of plague.
While I'm fine with this episode, there is a danger to the message. Quite frankly, this speaks more to the imbalance of perception between white collar crimes and other crimes. A bribe to a city official is a much bigger danger to society than one would expect. One could take the message of this short and propose a broad indiscriminate sweep of all crimes like jaywalking or curfew violation. I would massage the message to making white collar crimes into a more important level instead of the broken window theory of crime.
