Only the government is efficient and smart enough to decide who to give money to. Maybe I can convince some of those damn greedy coin collectors over on CT to send their coins back to the government. It is not in the least fair that some people can waste money on stupid pieces of metal while other don't have anything at all. The only thing that lets me sleep well at night is that I am sure us wealth redistributers will eventually convince the government to confiscate those coins if we write enough letters. Those coins were made by the government and should be the governments to do with what they please.
Oh all the coins will be illegal to own for folks making under 2 million dollars a year. I know. I've purchased several of the lawmakers already myself. New legal coinage will be struck with the likeness of ourselves (the new heroes of the world) to distribute to the common man (you know for things like bus fare, generic deodorant and knee pads).
