Even Heathens understand when they are being stolen from. Our father in heaven will leave all without excuse; because he reveals himself though his creation. Even Heathens have some sense of morality.

Even a two year old understands the word "mine." He understands when someone is unrightfully taking something from him.

As he morally matures he will learn that everyone has their own "mine."

Esteem to our Heavenly Father for revealing to Baum, the injustice that was set before him and the fellow countrymen of his day, and the injustice, bondage and death, that was thrust onto the world as a result of its' expansion.

I guess I'm not understanding how something true or useful that is in your posts above somehow dismisses the points that I made in my posts. The points made within my posts above have nothing to do with economics and "just weights" but rather a different set of matters. By the way, did you read sections 10 & 12 in your linked article?

In reflection upon the genre of article you chose to post, I've likewise linked the following, and I we can all see that like so many authors of fiction, there's an underlying allegory built within it:


My apologies if The Wizard of Oz is somehow a work dear to your heart, but I'm more concerned with---and bothered by---his Theosophical philosophy, whether it seems he was quickened and enlightened by the Spirit to produce a Populist allegory, ... or not.

And in inferential reflection, just because we all may appreciate the work of Susan B. Anthony, which I do, doesn't also mean I have to appreciate the work and influence of her compatriot, Matilda Joslyn Gage.
