A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

In Stave 4, the street dwellers have a conversation about Scrooge in which one says, “Every person has a right to take care of themselves. He always did.”

Does a person have a right to "Look out for Number One" (themselves) first? Should taking care of oneself be the primary basis for a person’s decisions? Write a blog post about this subject. Comment on how a person should live their life if they follow your philosophy. Your Blog post must be at least 100 words in length, which is about one-half page.
