Sen. John McCain has a wish for any exotic dancers who might feel the pinch from legislation he’s backing that would do away with the dollar bill and replace it with a dollar coin: Shake what your momma gave you and make more moolah. …
When pressed about the predicament facing scores of the country’s skin-baring and bill-collecting women, McCain responded without missing a beat, “Then I hope that they could obtain larger denominations.” …

John McCain is a collaborator.
Exactly.
It would be like dropping quarters at the car wash.
Well, around this neck of the woods $2 bills are enjoying a resurgence since the local “gentlemen’s club” opened.
Considering what they do with ping-pong balls, it might not be a problem.
I heard of strippers in Olongapo City, Phillipines who would pick up a stack of coins with her, er, ah, private parts.
And a vagina is not a slot machine despite where McCain is going with this stupid idea...
He was in the Navy and no doubt spent some time in the Phillipines on shore leave.
I guess rolling them would take on a new twist?
McCain is hinting that due to inflation, the dollar coin will soon replace the penny. Strippers will be confused at first.
I’ve got a few of those of the same size, but they have Benjamin Franklin’s face on them instead of JFK’s. Also, I think some of them have silver content.
Maybe they can slide your card... ewww...
“Where would they be inserted?”
In a slot, just like on a slot machine. Oops!
Especially if they print the denomination in cursive! Oy vey!
They recently opened one of those “gentlemens clubs” around here too.
The city issued a permit. Then the people living near the place exploded. The city tried to revoke it, claiming that it was approved “in error”. The club owners took them to court and after a lengthy battle the permit was enforced.
When the club finally opened they named it “Controversy”.
As for coins, I would gladly use coins in $1, $5, $10, and $20 increments. I would also appreciate $500 and $1000 bill denominations.
It was a lot easier to pay for small items when ice-cream cones, soda, candy bars, hot dogs, etc. could all be paid for with a single coin. And returning to 10 cent sodas isn't ever going to happen.
All the Franklin half dollars were 90% silver along with the 1964 Kennedy ones. 1965-1970 Kennedy half dollars were 40% silver. After that they were the now standard copper/nickel clad coins.
I use dollar coins often.
Singles are filthy! Full of bacteria, fecal matter, all kinds of nasty stuff!
The have a life measured in months. Then they’re shredded and dump in a landfill. And more are printed, at our expense.
Coins last many decades, and are, by nature of the metals, anti-bacterial. The metals are able to be recycled.
In Ohio, at least, they disinfect the paper singles with something that has a heavy perfume smell. My wallet stinks of cheap perfume. I wanna wash my hands after handling singles! Just think of all the people who didn’t wash their hands who touched these bills before you got them????
They’re disgusting!
I agree with McStain on this issue!
In a sane world McCain would be at the Happy Home with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes.
