** Will also use two-sided MSE optimal bandwidth since big diff in density on

** Define outcome variables for the plot:

** define any controls:
** bin width:

** Keep Variables of Interest:
keep `dep_vars' norm_dist Expropretario_ISTA own_amt
sort norm_dist

* Display Current Variable:

* Label Variables for Output Later On:
local ylabel : variable label `y_var'
