Not because we hate America.

Monopolies mean higher prices & worse quality. With no competition, corporations cut corners, drain communities, and put profit over people.

Classic movie day, but we skip the bad/sad parts.
Wizard of Oz, but after she lands in Munchkin Land.
Willy Wonka, but after all the depressing Cheer Up, Charlie stuff.
Sound of Music without all the knot-z's.

What else should we add?
