To add insult to injury, a false God, Santa Clause, has been established. He was created and perpetuated, by corporations in the name of seasonal profit. Shame on them. The American people have eagerly embraced the generous and jolly old fat man and bestowed upon his creators large annual cash rewards. Shame on them.
Many families take months to recover financially.
Corporations kidnapped God and replaced him with an advertising image, and we pay them dearly year after year. The American Bullshit Exchange takes no position with regard to religious perspective on this issue, but the moral implications are shamefully inconsistent, and mutually exclusive in sincere practice. The American Bullshit Exchange, however, consistently wishes all a merry Christmas.
