<p>[QUOTE=&quot;d.t.menace, post: 1255419, member: 18944&quot;]So they did something stupid and made the SBA dollar too close in size and appereance to the quarter and the public was justified in not accepting them. Todays dollars are bigger in diameter(but not too big), thicker and a different color, so all those excuses don&#039;t hold water anymore.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I would be curious to know that when they do surveys on whether people prefer paper or coins, do they first explain how much money could be saved the taxpayers by going to coins? It very well might change the results. </p><p><br /></p><p>Given todays economic situation people are much more aware of government spending and budget deficit issues and I just don&#039;t see that it would create the huge uproar that some others do. There are too many more important issues today and I don&#039;t think it&#039;s a big enough reason for someone to not vote for a congressman on this issue alone.&nbsp; It&#039;s the right thing to do to eliminate the paper dollar, just do it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
