I just watched the original The Shop Around the Corner. Stewart is great in that movie too, and I think there is enough Christmas in it for it to qualify as a Christmas movie. 😁

`It's a Wonderful Life` is the story of our time. America is currently Pottersville, and it got here because of warped, frustrated old men who couldn't say "no" to playing with the way our society is run for their own gain, in the fields of legislature, money and banking, the corporatist capitalist tenancy to lower quality and raise prices, etc. We are George Bailey. We've been slaving away at making this a better place and only narrowly escaping defeat.

The only way to restore Bedford Falls is to realize why we've been put here on this earth and no longer wallow in self pity, initiating the change we wish to see, not relying on the greedy to needs but working as directly with each other as possible.

Bitcoin, Nostr, and neighbors fixes this. #maga
