I'm sure plenty of people are jaded about Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol", in its literary and film versions... but, in cruel times like these, the message still cuts to the quick: the self-absorbed "Priviledged", focused only on the dope of personal gain, trod their paths on the sacrifice of others. If you wanted to push the thematic envelope a little further, "Tiny Tim" is a perfect allegory for Health Care.
That speculation aside... the part about The Guilty's visitation by ghosts, overnight, is appealingly just.
Jacob... or Bob Marley... think about it, CEOs.

Lewis Carroll's "Christmas Carol"? Is there some pun/joke here that I'm missing, or did you just think you were writing Charles Dickens and it somehow came out different through the looking glass?
For days I have been reading and looking for For the Scrooges of Wall Street, Some Marley's Ghost and wow I have no idea that in the web were so many blogs related to generic viagra, but anyways, thanks for sharing your inputs, they are really helpful.
Have a nice day
Thanks for stopping by, Paul. My email inbox has jaded me with the constant one-track mind of Limpness Medicines. Sad, huh, this burgeoning industry?
