Allusion1: The Forbes Magazine's "Midas List" categorizes the rich people who became rich during an economic downturn, much like how Midas himself turned worthless things, like wood and dirt, into gold.
Allusion 2: In Switchfoot's "Faust, Midas, and Myself" the vocalist/narrator wakes up seeing everything golden, which could be the greatest gift, but realizes that nothing of gold was what it once was, and wishes for it all to return back to normal.
