The Confederation also created a system for surveying lands which was used afterwards. But this is getting a little silly; the recent dollars haven’t even been minted and released for circulation, why do we need more of them? (And it’s an ugly series anyway.) Maybe we should mint dollars for the living men–there is precedence for that in a 1926 commemorative half with Coolidge. Let’s see, what can I spend a Trump dollar on?

I agree that the ‘presidents of the United States in Congress assembled’ Samuel Huntington to Cyrus Griffin should be commemorated. The Articles of Confederation was not a total failure. The Northwest Ordinance was responsible for the establishing the admission of new states to the union. It is important that young Americans know about the evolution of the national government.

Yes, good publicity for his book, but pretty silly otherwise. As the article says, the Confederation was not the United States, important as it was for later national development.

Oh it’s “effect”, not “affect.”

How stupid it can be? Sueing Treasury Secretary for not having more Presidential $1 Coins? It is just like asking to sue Treasury Department for not having more Ultra High Relief Saint-Gaudens Gold Coins in 2009. You better sue Treasury Secretary for not abolishing IRS(Internal Reveunue Service) which is an illegal government tax collecting agency. Get a life, next time please sue for not abolishing Income Tax!
