QUOTE
Wrong-o

The Wicked Witch of the East and West were the worst, as they are symbolic of the corruption of the gold seekers and bearers of the West and the money hungry business capitalists of the East, respectively.

Hmmmm, I concede defeat.  I knew not the underpinnings of The Wizard of Oz.  One should also keep in mind that its author was very socialistic in a capitalistic environment.  Please note that the last age of enlightenment came about by motivation of Mammon countering stagnation of divisive churches.  Although, we say money is the root of all evil, it is not true.  It is a universal currency of exchange allowing a freer modern interface. California gold rush accelerated USA expansion.  Easterners financed most of our westward movement as individuals more often than not falsely believed they were escaping strictures of society.

Most people today can be counted upon to jump for bigger buck.  Greed and avarice are simplistic words for complex reasoning such as a longer, healthier life.

Fairy tales more often than not have factual foundations.  Fantastic aspect is sugar coating for palatable consumption.  

I am so glad my flip judgements kicked the ball into motion.
