These are my thoughts, during average days of my life. They're probably not of any interest to anyone other than my dear friends, my children, my nephews, grandnephews, and other people who have passed through my life.

If I was on the debate team, I would simplify things a lot. I would say...folks, none of us really knows how much a trillions dollars is...not even a billion....but maybe, just maybe if we brought it down to millions, we could kind of relate to it.
We could really understand what the two candidates are talking about...because right now, it's going over most of our heads.
We think in dollars..and not even cents anymore. And why do we need to borrow from China...can't we just add more gold mints in Fort Knox, Kentucky. Everybody I know owns something that is gold...so why such a big attraction to it.
What we all do know...and we were all taught in the most basic way that you can't spend more money than you have.
And that is what our country is doing. So Countrymen...stop it!!!!!!! Stay within your budget, that is if we can ever get back on track.
I guess that's why nobody has asked me to debate!
This is a P.S. on information I received from Paul my nephew about gold and the Wizard of Oz.

Editor's Note: Here is the extraordinary story behind the extraordinary story of'TheWonderfulWizard of Oz'. Most of us have seen the movie version of this allegorical tale, but few of us are aware of what the various characters, places and things represented in the mind of Frank Baum, the tale's author. Professor Quentin Taylor of Rogers State University invitingly titles the piece presented below 'Money and Politics in the Land of Oz'. Though 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz' was written over 100 years ago, the themes will be recongizable to those with an interest in golden matters. While many today consider gold an instrument of financial and personal freedom, in Baum's tale, it is painted as a villain -- the tool of oppression. So, as you are about to see, we have come full circle, and gold has travelled a yellow brick road of its own
