[QUOTE="davidh, post: 553996, member: 15062"]I know it'll never go anywhere but I sent the following message to the President through the White House web site. Am I crazy, delusional, or what? [INDENT][B]SAVE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ANNUALLY.[/B] 1. Go to the concept of rounding final costs to the nearest Nickel. 2. Eliminate the Penny - no one uses them anyway. 3. Eliminate the Half Dollar - no one uses them either. 4. Eliminate the One Dollar bill - it's not needed since we have Dollar coins. 5. Pump up the production and distribution of Two Dollar bills. 6. Once those steps have been taken and are established, we could eliminate the Dime and just use Nickels, Quarters and Dollar coins, along with the Two, Five, Ten, Fifty and One Hundred dollar bills. 7. Make a significant design change to the One Hundred dollar bill and de-monetize the current circulating Hundreds, first giving a reasonable period for exchange of new for old, and requiring an accounting for anyone in possession of more than, say 100 of them. This would totally break the back of the drug and crime cartels who are the major users of those bills.[/INDENT] Opinions?[/QUOTE]
