“People always think this story is about you,” Bob Crachit tells Scrooge.
“But it ain’t about you, it’s about us – and how we let ourselves get infected with your ideas, your greed, your lies, its you stepin’ over the hungry and homeless and us following your lead, it’s us lettin’ you turn our government into a casino, listenin’ while you say day after day that profit is the new god, and us not standin’ up and shouting “NO!”‘
“It ain’t about you,” Cratchit says. “It’s about us.”
Based on the novel “A Christmas Carol” By Charles Dickens
