According to Yahoo News the United States may be getting rid of the American dollar and replacing it with a coin it will save billions of dollars. The reason it will save money is that the paper bill wears out much faster than the coin does which cost the government millions to reprint the money. The government will save 522 million each year by making the change but it will take around four years to fully get the change of currency in place. The only problem with the change is that Americans always choose bills over coins but it will be one step closer to our country recovering.
Do you support the change? I’m kind of 50/50 on it I’m not sure where I stand but I do know that I wouldn’t mind having a 1$ coin the only problem is that it means more change in your pocket. But I am all in for it if it means that it will help bring America out of debt. I do know that a lot of people won’t support it because of the fact it means a lot more change in your pocket.
Is this a surprise? Not to me I knew that this was coming I just didn’t know when if you look at a lot of different countries they already have dollar coins. That to me shows that the other countries just reacted to knowing it would save them money faster. We have already had a lot of coins already like the gold dollar and the half dollar so it wouldn’t shock me if they made the change.
We shall see if it ends up happening you know how it is the government says they are going to change one thing and the next week they have already changed their minds about it. But if they do I would support the change is it helps us recover from the debt that we have.
Wow! I can't believe that this could happen. That seems unreal, and like the most random change ever. I can't decide if I like this idea, I guess it'll just have to take some time getting used to the idea.
