“...abandoning the note could save around $5.5 billion over the next 30 years.”

Ah-huh. Minus the cost of refitting all existing vending machines to take the new coin, for starters.

Besides...if there are no more $1 bills, how are we going to show our appreciation to pole dancers?

Swipe her butt with a debit card, then take her 5 dollar bills as change back.

Many, if not most vending machines already take dollar coins. The dollar coins are a heck of a lot easier to feed into a vending machine than a moderately worn dollar bill.

I don’t know, but if it happens you had better use “warmed up” coins or risk being slapped!
