Scrooge always obeying the law??

[HorizonHse@aol.com]

hi all,

scrooge may be guilty of some sharp business practices (eg, magic hour glass; wdc 98) but the only time i can think of that he actually stole something is in land beneath the ground. almost always he winds up giving up what he found (eg, philosopher's stone)or losing iteg, king solomon's mines; prize of pizarro). when he gets to keep the wealth he finds (eg, riches everywhere; flying dutchman; gold nugget boat), its perfectly legal. the few artifacts he keeps that a government might claim (eg, lost crown of genghis khan; golden fleece)he seems to have come by legally -- in the first his agents acquired the crown; in the second, no one seems to own the fleece, no one having been to colchis for many, many years. at least in the cannon, scrooge always obeys the law.

regards,

william price
