In case you didn't believe me

Here's this link, about the coin shortage in Argentina :-)

Off to a busy day of studying. Lots of love!

Wow, the government is saying "We don't know what's wrong, there are supposed to be enough!" rather than "Sorry, we'll make more"? Brilliant.

I'm sort of surprised there isn't more of a formalized black market for the coins. A three-quarters-for-a-dollar business at a busy bus station could make a killing...

Seriously, how hard is it to print more coins? It's not like they're actually minted with gold and silver, right? Copper isn't that expensive

The parallels to Hilary in connection with the election in Argentina of Christina Kirchner are very interesting. I do not believe however that Bill can succeed Hilary. I believe his two terms are all he gets. We should also have a penalty for not voting. Our voting percentage is disgraceful. Keep up the interesting blogs. Love, Uncle Newt
