In this Charles Dickens story, Scrooge has no regard for anyone’s problems and resents paying taxes to support “orphanages and public work houses” to help the destitute, poor, and unlucky. Scrooge flatly says, “let them all starve and die off; there will be less tax to pay and overpopulation will be reduced.” What a grand Capitalist “profit maximizing” idea! This idea is constantly heard now in Congress, throughout America, and other Capitalist countries which are shared by Trans-Global-Corporations and Banks. (With our military budget over 65%, and expanding for corporate profit, politicians are determined (like Scrooge) to end taxing the rich by crashing public support programs - even abandoning established programs like medicare and social security - - so, indeed, “let the needy die off” for the betterment of the rich everywhere! However, taxes upon the poor and the middle rich will increase to support corporation welfare, profitable military expansion, and for police militarization to control the demonstrating conscientious objectors, and to target-practice on the minorities, and the unarmed juvenile delinquents.) Sounds awful but it’s true, isn’t it? Not to worry. We know the answer. Dickens, with the stroke of his pen, inserts a happy ending to his story of uncontrolled greed: In the story, Scrooge is scared out of being a lousy despicable robbing Capitalist who is out just for “me, me, me” . . . into becoming a sharing caring Socialist who wants “everybody” to be happy. Coincidentally, its good to remember this Christmas Day: Christ wants the same generous behavior and preaches the same ending as Dickens. This casts a deep shadow upon our ability to unravel reality. After all, God is the Dickens of the Holy Bible. The Bible records Gods personal commands and his son’s, Jesus’, teaching words. They are “Western Holy Christian” words of love, forgiveness, compassion, and sharing “profit” with everyone (you know, like in SOCIALISM). All evidence shows that Capitalists pay no attention to Holy Scripture except to justify their Arab wars which Christian Popes and Kings started in the 13th century. This time the “Holy Grail” is to control the world’s 50% oil supply buried beneath the heathen’s sands. Why God or Christ are unwilling, or unable, to simply re-write their story’s ending, like the mortal Dickens did, is beyond explanation. Isn’t it? It might help our understanding of reality if we ADMIT there is no such thing as a Christian Capitalist. The GOALS of each are contradictory and opposite; each cancels the meaning of the other. Happy X-Mas. https://youtube/watch?v=c3aVg7aT79M
