MY problem with Unger that self righteous bigot.

In examples involving trolleys and tracks Unger perpetuates the hateful and offensive stereotype of the mustachioed villain who ties people to train tracks. It is plainly evident that Unger has a vendetta against bearded men. My guess is that Unger's altruism is a way to get back at Santa Claus (a bearded man) who did not get him the one toy above all others that he wanted for Christmas that year. If Unger couldn't have it, then no one else could either. So he became a philosopher to try to infect the world with his noxious doctrine, hoping to put Santa Claus, Coca-Cola and the toy companies out of business. If everyone lives a Spartan lifestyle and gives all their surplus wealth to UNICEF, CARE or Oxfam then they have no need for gifts or material comforts of any kind and then Santa will for the first time know what it is like to be unwanted and useless. A diabolical plot to be sure, but then we all know that Unger is the real villain . Don't worry Santa , I won't let the bad man hurt you.
