Well sure! But I'm not saying "an atomic clock invented the second". I'm just giving you a textbook definition of a "second". What else is there? Do you know of a better way? Or standard? Not being argumentative I just don't know.
Many historians and literary scholars argue that The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900) by L. Frank Baum can be read as an allegory about political power, populism, and monetary control in late-19th-century America, disguised as a children’s story.
Baum wrote The Wizard of Oz during the Populist Era (1890s), when America was fiercely divided over:
- Gold standard vs. bimetallism (gold + silver)
- Power of banks and eastern elites
- Farmers and laborers crushed by debt
- Centralized authority vs. the common people
- Silver Shoes (book, not movie)
- Dorothy wears silver shoes (changed to ruby slippers in the film)
- Symbol of silver coinage (bimetallism)
- Walking on silver shoes on the gold road = balance of money supply
This detail is one of the strongest arguments for the theory.
