The ACTUAL story is QUITE darker than the movie.

In a way, the writer may be right... the people of the land stopped the evil designs of the wicked witch... something akin to 2016.

Let’s grant the authoress’ premise that the wizard is a great con artist. He still managed to get Hillary Clinton turned into a puddle of goo.

The ACTUAL story is QUITE darker than the movie.,
It really was a political satire on the economic arguments of the times, the silver or gold standard. There were a couple of dozen "OZ" books. OZ-oz. ounce.
