With all the greed and overthetopness(not a real word) going on in the world today, one can only have a little sympathy for the old lonely, Mr. Burns look alike. The ironic thing is though he may physically resemble the hunched over and greedy (bad corporation) stereo type that the Simpsons character so wonderfully portrays, Scrooge is actually the polar opposite, when it comes to his spending habits and his world views.
Slate Magazine does a wonderful job at defending this quite frugal and often misinterpreted little rich old man.
