The military coin thing is getting out of hand. We don’t need a federal law for something that shouldn’t come out of government funds in the first place. This has wormed its way over to federal service as well. It all needs to stop. Coins are not a government function, if they can’t go in a vending machine.

BTW, the US pays for the ENTIRE Chinese Military budget, through interest we pay to them on our debt.

That’s right: we pay enough for the ENTIRE Chinese military budget.

Plus, we pay for our own military.

Beside that, a few coins aren’t much to worry about...

Maybe they just need to enforce the Buy American act?

Active Duty ping.

BTW, the South Koreans make the best squadron coins, by far.

Hey, if Ralph Lauren can take all kinds of grief for bis American themed outfits for the Olympics, made in China, then there is no plausible reason for commemorative coins being made in China...
