Why is it that the US government is willing to ram such things as Obamacare down our throats, but balks at lesser intrusivenesses such as switching from dollar bills to dollar coins or switching to the Metric measurements system?
In the case of the dollar bill coins it even saves the government money in the long run, so it's something that fiscal conservatives can get behind.

I'm going to be a bastard here for just a minute -- so very not like me. Perhaps they haven't caught on because one can't slip a dollar coin into a stripper's G-string.
Okay, on a more serious note: there are a lot of vending machines out there that have bill collectors on them. Perhaps not nearly enough of them have been reworked to accept the dollar coins.
Or maybe it's just more big government brainlessness in action again.
