<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrbrklyn, post: 234064, member: 4381&quot;]Its funny that you say that but honestly because I ignored this thread on purpose until I got board this evening because I figured i didn&#039;t want to get into another running discussion on the Government and money.&nbsp; I&#039;m not an expert in economics.&nbsp; I just have some interest and some undergraduate education in the matter.&nbsp; But for what it is worth, the US Treasury (and the mint) are strickly government agencies run by political appointees and career buearocrats.&nbsp; They couldn&#039;t care less what happens to coins or dollars as long as their check is cashable at the end of the month.</p><p><br /></p><p>Neither makes any sort of a profit and I&#039;m always amazed at how this is overlooked when discussing these institutions.&nbsp; Unless something is happening to threaten their jobs, the Treasury department views money like the sanitation department views garbage.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Ruben[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
