After all, it is Santa Claus who seems to start early giving people the idea that they can have what they want and expect somebody else to pay for it.

No. Uncle Sam is to blame.
Thats right, go ahead and blame Santa Claus. He is not around to defend himself. He’s making toys and new cars for you and me and cannot be disturbed. I knew someone would blame my trusty old friend.
Santa Claus may make computers and IPods, but he knows not how to screw up our economy with one.
I have heard that he has already lost 20 pounds, worrying about our economy.
Lord knows he has enough gray hair already.
If you must place blame, place it on the Easter Bunny and all those gold karat carrots he has been consuming for the last five years. He is so fat, that he cannot hop down the bunny trail.
You don’t need an Easter bonnet to figure this mess out.
Shoot the rabbit and save the economy !!!
What people really don’t know is really where Santa get’s all those gifts. The common myth is elves and some workshop up North when the truth is Santa and his band of elves are sliding down chimney’s along the Gold coast absconding satchels of gifts from the wealthy and redistributing them to the other side of the tracks. We should be celebrating the efforts of Robin Clause! ;)
No, because Santa is almost 100% capitalist these days and is worth billions to the economy every Christmas.
Not as long as Santa’s gifts are contingent on good behavior. There’s going to be a lot of coal in Washington stockings next December.
My nominee is Hallmark, which has been telling everybody they’re special for a hundred years now, together with all those cynical advertisers and marketeers whose line tells us a thousand times over that we deserve something, from hair coloring to automobiles to ice cream. Education picked up the cry and wants kids to think that self-esteem is something that other people owe them, and learning should be fun so they shouldn’t have to work at it (but they deserve good grades so they’ll feel good about themselves).
Poor Santa is just an innocent dupe of the dollars game. Any day now we’ll hear that he’s checked himself into a rehab facility. The price of empty fame is pretty high.
Santa. What an invention. He’s just a byproduct of the nature described within the details of this question.
