If Trump is successful in this term, he'll be one of the most transformational presidents in American history.

I wish him well.

Heard an interesting counter argument, this proposal would require us to mint more nickels which apparently cost 13c each or something.

Not sure how it all nets out or if cost really would be why you’d do this anyway, but it seems a valid consideration.

Another reason to do this is it frees up cash register space to have a real dollar coin that people use.

Though we may be far enough post-cash for that never to be important.

I mostly agree with this.

I’m somewhere between indifferent and fine with it.

The whole point of “it costs more to produce than its actual worth” is ridiculous.
