cvargo Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 There have been a few threads here lately about what would happen if we got rid of the $1 bill. Now me personally I completely agree that a coin would be preferred. But today while doing some 'surfing' I ran across this site. I guess there is a special interest group completely opposed to getting rid of the dollar. Read the dollar facts some are quite funny, most of the arguments they present this site has already debunked. Enjoy... I can't wait to read the comments on this one. http://www.americansforgeorge.org/dollar-facts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Gotta say, the title of this thread threw me off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art1.2 Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 Sounds like a lot of bs to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve D'Ippolito Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Although I don't want this particular dollar coin, I recognize it's going to happen eventually. Some of the arguments here were just outright silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikaros Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Okay, Kimmel's joke was worth visiting the site. However, I want to take particular exception to one remark on the site: Coins represent currency's past' date=' not its future.[/quote']Given the trend toward plastic-based transactions, you can say the exact same thing about paper currency.

UncleBobo Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 I loved reading through the list of the coalition members, my favorite being "Texas Aggieland Bookstores."
