In other words, while its somewhat interesting to a degree....maybe we're not supposed to fret about all this 'background' logic in order to enjoy the films.

Yes, much of this is borrowed from real life organized crime history...but overall, the characters themselves are still works of fiction.

I'll say one thing, though...wondering how Michael didn't know Frankie was alive is a helluva bit more compelling a topic than why wasn't anybody crying at Vito's funeral.

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
