to look to be sure. Seems to me the idiots were puzzled when people
didn't use the old dollar coins. They didn't listen apparently when
told that the major objection was the size, too close to a quarter.

Ah well, never underestimate the stupidity of beuracracy!

Is it a problem for you that a one dollar bill is the same size as a fifty?

The problem is there is no need for a dollar coin since we already have
a dollar bill. The idea was obviously conceived by the US Department
of Redundancy Department...

The idea has been to do away with the dollar bill ever since a dollar
coin was proposed. I even saw an article somewhere prior to the
release of this one pointing out that use of the coin will not be
really accepted until they just quit producing a dollar bill. I guess
it just goes to show more of their stupidity.
