SANTA – GIFTS WITHOUT DEBT

by Eli Harman

Santa’s a metaperson. The only way he can keep tabs on all those people, judge all those people, place all those gifts, and eat all those cookies is through division of labor. The reason we use a meta person to give gifts instead of just giving them to each other is to give gifts without giving a corresponding debt. Your debt to santa is already paid by the time you receive his gifts. You just have to keep being good if you want any more next year.
