Who is the most important person to look after? Who is the person that matters the most? While Scrooge is in the command of the third ghost, Scrooge witnesses people talking in the street about how he always looked out for number one. Like one person said, “Ever person has a right to take care of themselves. He always did.” Scrooge definitely looked out for “number one”, but in a bad way. It is fine to look after yourself before others, but only in moderation. You should take care of your health and mental wellness, but Scrooge took it way too far. He never did anything to help anyone else, even if they almost begged him. He should have taken care of himself, but he never took care of others too. It is funny but sometimes people are so focused in helping themselves be OK, that they forget to help others get back on their feet. Scrooge definitely based his decisions in life off of his own health and wellness instead of thinking of what he could do for others.Monday, December 14, 2009

A Look at a Miser's Life
December 24, 1843
Today was as drear as any other day. People wishing a Merry Christmas! A Merry Christmas! Bah! A merry Christmas is a joke. There is nothing merry about giving out handouts to the poor. The wretched, disgusting people who should be thrown into jail. When my nephew visited he tried to convince me that being a dirty, piece of filth who celebrated Christmas was a good thing. He invited me over to his house to be merry and cheerful, like every other lazy, oblivious person on Christmas. Two gentlemen had the nerve of coming into my office, disturbing my work and asking for a handout for the poor. Gentlemen are not what they are, they are annoying people who should not be allowed to walk into the world. They supported the idea of giving the poor handouts instead of sending them to valuable institutions that I have put my precious money into like prisons, Union workhouses, and treadmills. All the other people on this planet need to learn that being a low-life is a shameful life, and that we shouldn't give into giving handouts to these monstrous people.
