They’re dirty disgusting heavy coins.

They’re being forced on the community as change in post offices and City parking.

I think part of the problem, is they’re not being used for change at post offices now, because the USPS is switching to cashless debit card stamp machines, and phasing out the machines which gave the dollar coins out as change.

Actually.

Could also explain the lower USPS revenues. Eliminating the stamp vending machines has been a disaster, IMHO.

Make is harder for people to spend money, and they’ll spend less money...

Duh.
