home school economics

Miss4 (Randomly, while helping me load the dishwasher):

"What you've got to do is, get some newspaper and scrunch it all up really tight and small, and then, you get some gold or some other metal, but gold is best, and cover up all the newspaper so you can't see any. And scrunch it really really really tight and... there! That's how the government makes money"

So now you know.
