Things have really gotten out of balance, when it's a choice between Ruby Slippers and Oil.
With the slippers, there's Teleportation and who knows what other strange & wonderous powers. And, then there's oil, with its promise of riches and political/military power.
It kinda makes me wish that Dick Cheney's Mum had tucked him in with "The Wizard of Oz" each night - instead of the Annual Reports of the major oil companies!
. . . the Tin Man carries a can of oil. Oil is currently at an all-time high price, and going up. His oil is therefore more valuable than the slippers.
