Dollar bills are inefficient, inconvenient and a waste of taxpayer money. Every other country in the world has realized the affect of inflation and has adjusted their coin/bill system.

No :-) is appropriate here. James I thought that it might but I was giving him the chance to change my perception of him as a moron. Billy |

But rather than belabor the point, I think I'll stop right here. James |

Joe public is naturally resistant to change and governments have a duty to make common sense decisions, a bit of an oxymoron I know, but it's a national disgrace that the USA is still producing a one dollar bill. I can think of a lot of things that rank much higher on the scale of "national disgrace" than producing a one dollar bill. OhMiGawsh! They still have a one dollar NOTE? Oooohhhhh, the shame... You forgot to say "Oh the humanity!" ;D That is almost as bad as the American refusal to adopt the metric system. The truth is worse; the US actually did adopt the metric system back in 1865... as a basis for defining its traditional measuring units. Thus, no one noticed. |
