I was about to move to the next comic when it struck me – Marley would have recognized his longtime business partner and known this wasn’t the correct Ebenezer.
“Business!” cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. “Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, were all my business. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!”
Interestingly, Mankind Pharma is a big pharmaceutical company in India. They claim to provide world-class pharmaceuticals at affordable prices. I can see Barney trying to buy them up just so he can say “Mankind is my business!” without lying, even as he jacks up prices 300%.

Sorry Jacob, it will never work. Barney’s too stingy to ever have a partner.

Modern day billionaires don’t have enough soul for any Christmas spirits to work with.

Ok, there’s a semicolon between the two Weingartens and an ampersand before David Clark. What can it mean?
