Marine and the Hippie 211218 S01E36- Bah! Humbug

The Marine and the Hippie

In this, the Christmas Episode, we discuss Ebaneezer Scrooge's encounter with the two scary children Ignorance and Want, and how Dickens' critique of the neglectful society under Liberal Government during the Industrial Revolution is not only still applicable today, but is much worse, because it seems that the entire society has turned a blind eye to the struggle of people to simply exist. While doom was written on the head of the boy named Ignorance, it seems that our society, rather than recoiling from the two pathetic and meager children as Scrooge did, openly and enthusiastically embraces ignorance and want in society, and therefore brings about our doom as a people.
