Excerpts

"If they would rather die," said Scrooge, "they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population. Besides—excuse me—I don’t know that."
Page 37, added by Zeba Books.

This line represents Scrooge at his most callous. It highlights the Malthusian social theories of the time that Dickens was actively protesting against, making it a crucial quote for the book’s social message.
