Some serious, wow! Here's a great comment... I suggest a new coin made of fools gold with busts of Timmay and Benocide on opposite sides. Embossed around the periphery: In Greed We Lust. Good bye America.

>>Coins need to be plastic now. Too expensive to make. Maybe US Mint should abolish some coins. -vbg- Naw, plastic is oil based... Too valuable. Coins need to be made out of cardboard: 1. Recycleable 2. Environmentally friendly 3. Green. 4. Supports the third world (us) 5. Light and easy to carry 6. In emergencies can be used for heat 7. Great packing material 8. Much cheaper to produce 9. Can be used to feed your goats 10. QE friendly 11. Exists in sufficient quantity to be a currency (unlike say precious metals).* *in line with Chairman Bernanke's Senate testimony.
