Time to hoard Nickels

Rep. Steve Stivers thinks it's a bad thing for it to cost money to make money.

Here's his latest bill to change to composition of the Nickel to worthless steel.

Why do we let our government give us worthless money?

Paper backed by nothing.
A penny is worth; 0 cents
A dime is worth; .02 cents
A quarter is worth; .05 cents
A dollar coin is worth; .06 cents

But a Nickel is worth it's face value in the metal that it's made of; .05 cents

Coin clipping, inflation, funny money...all stuff of dishonest governments.

Here's the difference, money made of metal worth something:

1909-1982 penny, made of copper (hence the name "copper penny") is worth .02 cents.
pre 64 dime; $2.08
pre 64 quarter; $5.21
pre 64 half dollar; $10.42
pre 64 dollar coin; $22.29

So, the government steals from us in more ways that confiscating our income, they give us fake money and pass it off for full value.

Merry Christmas not allow in "franked" congressional mail.

Apparently (link here), congressmen cannot wish their constituents "Merry Christmas" in tax payer funded mailings to their districts.

I say, SO WHAT? They shouldn't have franking privileges to begin with.

It's a massive waste of money. It's a way to keep their name ID up and help with their reelections.

There is no need for this in the age of emails/internet/facebook/twitter/etc....

My Representative just sent a post card telling us he supports the 2nd amendment. Um....that's his job! He took an oath to uphold the Constitution and the right to bear arms was the 2nd amendment to this Constitution.

Complete waste of tax money. It doesn't matter what party one affiliates himself with....Wilson did this and now Johnson is,.....it's a waste of money.

I'm surprised this family lived through it. Usually, these situations end up with the families dead, burned alive (Waco) or shot in the back(Ruby Ridge).
