<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Luis, post: 547880, member: 17336&quot;]Exactly. Just like I said in another thread, the change is very rarely coming from the people. The people will use the bill for as long as it exists. Besides the waste of money that it is, it&#039;s just too inconvenient to have a ote with such a small denomination. In no time, the pocket is bursting with $1 bills.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Like someone else already said, being practical and being used are two very different things. I&#039;d find a 2$ bill or coin very practical. The only reason why I don&#039;t use it is because I never see one.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>It will circulate as much as the authorities want it to circulate. That is true for every denomination, pretty much everywhere. All those countries that joined the euro recently. Do you REALLY think anyone would have stopped using the former currency if the decision was made to leave the two currencies co-exist forever? Of course not. Here it&#039;d be even simpler, because you wouldn&#039;t be changing currency. A couple of months is all it&#039;d take to remove the bills and introduce the coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>If nothing else, you will see I&#039;m right when you have to use 6 or 7 $1 to buy a candy bar and people realize it&#039;s starting to become unreasonable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
